(Woops! I think that was already four books, and I still have one more) Make Way for Ducklings by Robert McCloskey is a classic picture book first published in 1941. Amazon has an Audible Audio Edition for Kindle that sells for only $2.95. I have not actually tried it, but if you are interested in these audio versions, you might want to consider it. The price is especially good.
