YES -- Pictures in the Audible App!

We recently discovered these kids audible books that have the illustrations in a slideshow as they listen to the stories on their fire tablets in the app. My boys (5-11) are all LOVING discovering their favorite stories over again with Audible! These are a STEAL!

Magnificent

Tomie dePaola is a masterful storyteller, who weaves a wonderful tale. This performance of a great book is well done!

Strega Nona and her pasta pot

This narration has music to emphasize each event or thought. While I enjoyed the music it is too loud when the narrator is talking.

Great story. It is a good reading to accompany the physical book.

Great story

I loved the way this story was read, but the music was too loud! It almost drowned out the reader. I wish there was a way to adjust the sound. The story is great! I love big Anthony.

Pasta pasta pasta

Great telling of the classic tale...bonus for the visuals! You wont regret taking the time to enjoy this story.
