[CASL-L] Audiobooks on CD

[Lauren Hunt]

We have playaways. The kids love them and they only require AAA batteries
(I buy the rechargeable kind to get the most bang for my buck).

Since CDs are kind of a dead technology, I am sure you could find an
extremely inexpensive (maybe even free in some places) CD player that could
be checked out to students if they wanted to check out the audiobooks on
CD. I would try a thrift shop like Savers.
