Instructional Ideas

  • Use the book in its entirety to reinforce knowledge of story elements, including characters, setting, plot, conflict, and resolution
  • Follow each chapter with a set of discussion questions
  • After listening to the full story, watch the movie and complete a compare and contrast activity 

Classroom Considerations

  • The duration reflects an estimated completion of the entire book; however, each chapter varies in length (about 15 minutes)

Pros

  • Each chapter gives the option to download the audio file 
  • Transcripts support those in need of written words for better focus
  • The narrator is engaging and speaks clearly 

Cons

  • Individual chapter webpages display ads and listeners' comments
