Free Book: FreeClassicAudioBooks.com

by

The link below is to a website where you can download free audio books in formats for the iPod and mp3s.

There are many classics available for download including Treasure Island (R. L. Stevenson) and Huckleberry Finn (Mark Twain). The King James Bible is also there, as is Pilgrim’s Progress (John Bunyan).

So if you love reading, but are unable to read for some reason, perhaps an audio book is the way to go for a while.
