![]() OverDrive This app allows for free access to books, audiobooks, and comics from your local libraries or school. If your library system doesn't use it, there are other similar apps/systems. In the state of Wisconsin, most of the library systems are on OverDrive, so access to materials in any of the library systems are available to everyone in the library system. Overdrive also has an app called LIbby where you can borrow books or audiobooks from your local library. We use Libby for bedtime stories, and it's so easy to connect from my smart device, download to Kindle, and read. The app also sends notifications when the book is due, and then they automatically return your borrowed item when it's time is up. (No late fees!) ![]() Audible Stories Audible runs a free audiobook library for kids called Audible Stories. No fees necessary to have access to this vibrant library of books in many different languages. For fun, wes listened to a book in Japanese! Barnes and Noble eBooks for the Nook Barnes and Noble has eBooks available for Nook readers as well. These books don't require any subscription fees or sitting through ads. There are an abundance of options, ways to search, and engage with this material. If you have a Nook, I recommend taking a look at this resource! One final note, these are only a few of the many options out there. I found a lot more, but many of them include a lot of ads, popups, commercials, and 'trials' before getting to the content. Some are behind pay walls. As a mom, I want to be able to find a book and give it to my kiddo, or have an audiobook read through without any commercials. So, I encourage you to take a look for what's out there, but keep an eye on internet safety and necessary (or unnecessary) downloads.
Have fun!
