Will you be one of the millions of Americans taking to the road this weekend?  If so, listen to a classic and the drive time will fly by.  I know, for some just the word classic can make the eyelids droop, but these books are guaranteed to engage and enthrall the entire family. All are driven by strong plot lines and memorable characters-- the perfect antidote to holiday traffic!
