It's getting late here so this post wont be long. However, I tried something new today. We had some errands to run so I played the Story of the World: Volume1 audiobook in the car. The boys loved it. As soon as we would get in the car from another stop, they asked enthusiastically to hear more of the story. And I could understand why. Jim Weiss narrates this audiobook, and he is a wonderful storyteller.
I am listening to these CD's along with the boys. I didn't preview them. I have read that they are not completely historically accurate and that they emphasize violence. I'll be listening to see if I agree with these criticisms. However, at least for tonight, I can say that I'm pretty thrilled with any audiobook that gets my 5 and 7 year olds clamoring to hear about Sumatra and Mesopotamia.
