Parents and children can take a break from screens and use their imaginations while listening to their favourite stories or discovering new ones.
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Audible launched an audio book website which will remain active through early September.
Director of corporate communications of Audible Sam Neuman said the website brings words and stories off the page to listeners’ ears, through spoken word performances.
Hundreds of spoken-word entertainment and audio book titles are available for free, unlimited streaming from anywhere in the world.

Sam added the stories are read by incredible actors and sometimes the authors themselves.
Everyone can listen to hundreds of powerful, entertaining stories which are most suitable for listening with children.
For the parents who are striving to keep the little listeners engaged, Audible stories offers beloved classics for beginner readers.
The director said older children can fall down the rabbit hole with Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland or soar over Agrabah on a magic carpet ride in Aladdin.
Teenagers can visit the English countryside in Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, breathe in the Alaskan wilderness in The Call of the Wild, or brave rough seas in Melville’s Moby Dick. To start listening to the stories, visit the audio books provider on Stories.Audible.com
