The works of dozens of well-known authors are presented in audio format on this site that also includes video clips of plays and a collection of author interviews. For young children, fine readings of Beatrix Potter's stories and an outstanding performance of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland are provided. Older students can select from a variety of classic poems, short stories, and interviews with such literary masters as Isaac Asimov, Gunter Grass, and John Updike.

For younger students, teacher selection of the audio segments is a must. Developed by the Ohio University Telecommunications Center.
