This is going to be the Summer of the Road Trip. In preparation, I’ve been doing a casual search for some prerecorded storytelling for a few of the longest highway stretches.
I was originally going to download a copy of the first Harry Potter off iTunes, but it’s $40, a little rich for us right now. So I’m looking for free. So far I found a lovely reading of Alice in Wonderland, but other than that I’ve come up dry.
It’s easy to find podcasts of stories, but it’s much harder to find ones that I’d be willing to listen to for a few hours in a row. I’ve realized that the word “free” most often means “nonprofessional narrator.”
Any ideas out there?

We have just returned from our one-night-camping trip. The girls loved it. I didn’t bring the inflatable mattress (against Mark’s better advice) and lived to regret it.
Despite my restless sleep, it always amazes me that camping can be so fulfilling.
