[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP, and just wanted to update that Frog and Toad has been a smashing success the past two nights with a just-turned 4 year old. So many giggles last night with Toad dumping water on his own head. : )

We used to listen to the audiobooks in the car, too, with the author reading them himself. The soundtrack to the Frog & Toad musical was also a huge hit in our house![/quote]

Yes we love the audio books too!  Any others your kids like?  I feel like we need some new ones.[/quote]

It's been a few years since mine were that age, but the Olivia collection was a surprise hit, given how visual those books are. I thought the audiobooks would be useless without the pictures, but Dame Edna makes them super-fun. We still quote them years later: "It was----[gasp]---THE DOG!!!"

If You Give a Cat a Cupcake, Moose a Muffin, etc. were also fun. For longer trips, we also loved Beverly Cleary's books, and Stockard Channing does the Ramona ones. Ralph S. Mouse was especially fun as an audiobook. And Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, read by Eric Idyll, had some great voice work. Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little can work for bedtime chapter books or audiobooks. [/quote]
