Celebrity story time

As Summer Reading kicks off, you might find yourself looking for your next great read. Have you considered listening to an autobiography or memoir? It`s a great way to learn all about your favorite celebrity because they are reading the book to you! Just make sure to look for "read by the author." Listen when you`re working around the house, have a long car ride, or sitting under an umbrella on the beach. Even better, they can come in three different formats: E-audio, CD, or Playaway.
