Resource:FREE Audio & Video Literature for Kids - and More
Provider:Kids Learn Out Loud
Summary:This is a commercial website that offers quite a few FREE, educational audio books, MP3 downloads, and podcasts just for kids and teens. This review focuses on the free LITERATURE resources, but you can also access titles in other subject categories such as art, history, science, social sciences, and more
Description:When you get to the site, you'll see a menu of free literature categories that are available including:

*American Classics - Includes titles such as the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Call of the Wild, The Prince and the
Pauper, A Little Princess, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Pollyanna, and more.

*European Classics - Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Robinson Crusoe, The Tale of Peter Rabbit,

*The Secret Garden, Black Beauty, The Adventures of Pinocchio, and more.

*Short Stories - American Indian Fairy Tales, Agatha Christie Radio Mysteries, Rumpelstiltskin, The Little Match Girl, Rapunzel and more.

*Drama - Orson Welles' radio program, The Mercury Theater On The Air

*World Classics - Anne of Green Gables, Japanese Fairy Tales, Shakespeare, West Africa Folk Tales, and more.

Click on any category and a new page opens with a list of offerings. Click on "play" to hear/watch the story. Click on the title and another window opens where you can play the recording and find additional information about it. In some cases, you may find additional learning resources.

When you are through exploring the literature section, refer to the menu on the left side of the page under "Kids Free
Stuff" to access the other subject categories. You can also browse by age range: under 8, 9-12, and teens.

While there is plenty of free content here, there are many more titles available for a fee.

The "Kids Learn Out Loud" website is part of the larger "LearnOutLoud.com" website that offers downloads more suitable to adult audiences - some for free, most for a fee
