Summertime and the (book) listening is easy.

Summertime, for all its promise of lazy sunny days and lakeside frolic, often means travelling long distances in the car with your children. In my road trip experience, one child requires attention ("Are we there yet? I need the toilet. I'm hungry ... etc."), while two or more children can transform the back seat into a gladiator arena. At the onset of July, with endless stretches of highway between me and our desired summer locales, I invested in several recent children's audiobooks in an attempt quell the gladiators, and with the hope of entertaining the adults in the front seat, too.
