When I was young, audiobooks were "books on tape," shared via a cassette tape. However, those "books on tape" are a fading, distant memory, replaced now by media that jives more smoothly with our 21st century, digital lifestyles. Audiobooks are cool in that they allow people to hear fluent reading and — especially for growing readers — listen to what reading should sound like.
