The Schwa Was Here is another one I'll check out - we don't have it in our system so I'll ILL it.<br /><br />Geronimo Stilton is fine on CD. Edward Herrmmaann has such a terrific voice you don't miss the illustrations.<br /><br />And yeah Kate I loathe the narrator on the Percy Jackson books, but the stories are so good, we're addicted now!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07372347723680794611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-880068813255766240.post-24768768875996004512009-07-16T17:55:42.743-04:002009-07-16T17:55:42.743-04:00I am listening to Sabriel by Garth Nix read by Tim...I am listening to Sabriel by Garth Nix read by Tim Curry right now and it is the best audiobook I've EVER heard.Joannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-880068813255766240.post-36359679149746905102009-07-16T16:27:09.129-04:002009-07-16T16:27:09.129-04:00My favorite audiobooks are the Oz stories - but th...My favorite audiobooks are the Oz stories - but they can be hard to find, often only on cassette. I'm interested to see you recommend Geronimo Stilton. I've been doubtful about getting those for the library b/c they're so heavily illustrated. Do they work well without the illustrations?Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05096787155616041727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-880068813255766240.post-84239639589846306702009-07-16T08:46:32.976-04:002009-07-16T08:46:32.976-04:00Thank you for the recommendations!

Our favorite so far has been The Tale of Despereaux read by Graeme Malcolm.<br /><br />I thought the narrator for the Percy Jackson series was horrible though--everything was read in exactly the same tone. My husband remarked that you couldn't tell when the book got exciting because the reader said things like "I ate a piece of toast" with the same intonation as "I stabbed the hellhound through the belly." We'll save those for reading out loud ourselves to the kids.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03113130840039776447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-880068813255766240.post-69866133206560362072009-07-16T00:30:46.756-04:002009-07-16T00:30:46.756-04:00I also loved, loved Skulduggery Pleasant - thank y...I also loved, loved Skulduggery Pleasant - thank you for that recommendation a while back.<br /><br />I just started listening to The Schwa Was Here.
