They are stories that impart timeless themes, contain universal truths, and provide rich literary experiences year after year and generation after generation. However, many classics may be inaccessible to contemporary readers. Obsolete words, outmoded expressions, difficult sentence construction, and unfamiliar settings can place classics out of reach for many students, especially those with special needs. Unabridged audiobook versions can help bridge the gap between these classic works of literature and the students in your classrooms. Listening to a classic story can create a truly rewarding “reading” experience. All titles listed above are available at a 10% discount—Standing Order Plan discounts do not apply.
