I have two Audible credits that I need to use. I’d love some suggestions for either myself or family. Everything seems to pale in comparison to our Harry Potter audiobooks...Jim Dale is amazing! It needs to not only be a book that I would like to listen to again but also must have a great narrator. It can be a great book but if the narrator is “meh” I just wont listen to it. TIA, I hope!

I have not heard these books but have read them (finished THe War I finally Won within the last week) recently and I really love them. My oldest was born in 2007 and I'm trying to decide if he'd enjoy/"get" them or not. Your kids are older and I recommend these books!

We have listened to all 6 of these as audio books while traveling and the whole family enjoyed them. We are currently listening to book two of The Very Nearly League of Honorable Pirates and my Girls (9 and 11) are also enjoying this series. Originally Posted by connor_mommy

The Ramona series by Beverly Cleary. It's all 8 books, so nice and long, and Stockard Channing narrates. All 3 of mine adore them. We've listened to the whole thing twice through and it's still our road trip go-to.
