Books and audiobooks
  • A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Bad Beginning on Audible This is NOT one of the books included in Audible's free collection of audiobooks, however if you have not used Audible before, you get a 30 day free trial which will be long enough to finish the book. In class we read up to the end of chapter 9.
  • Audible - Amazon Amazon has cancelled the subscription of books and audio stories for children and students of all ages as long as schools are closed, kids everywhere can instantly stream an incredible collection of stories, including titles across six different languages. All stories are free to stream on your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet
