SYNC Audiobooks for Teens returns April 29th for a 12th season of free audiobook downloads to keep! AudioFile Magazine has hosted this program all these years to encourage the development of new listeners during middle and high school summer vacation periods. Listening to audiobooks has been demonstrated to increase literacy even with those who don’t identify themselves as readers. Audiobooks provide opportunities to deepen capacity for empathy as well as offer exposure to a wide variety of genres, voices, and expressive styles. Check out this awesome opportunity here!
