Free Story Downloads
Here’s a short list of places to grab free audiobooks, perfect for car rides or choice time. Most of these are recordings of works in the public domain, which means a lot of material that’s quite old, and hence, pretty out there. But for those little guys who dig the psychedelic travels of Alice, there are some gems.
The LibriVox project is an interesting one. I love the idea of folks donating their time to reading books, just to share online. It’s lovely.
LibriVox volunteers record chapters of books in the public domain and release the audio files back onto the net (via podcast and catalog). Our goal is to make all public domain books available as free audio books. We are a totally volunteer, open source, free content, public domain project.

The Screen Actors Guild has this site with streaming videos of actors reading recent children’s books. It’s a small collection, I wonder if they’ll be adding to it.
