As part of a special promotion to accompany their 50% off downloadable audiobook sale, AudioGO (some sort of division of the BBC) is offering a free copy in mp3 format of their abridged version of
Kenneth Grahame's children's classic
The Wind in the Willows, read by Sir Derek Jacobi, a very respected British actor.
This offer started awhile ago, but I only remembered to post about it recently, so you've got until the end June 30th, UK time, to sign up for a free account at AudioGo and get and download the book (about 39 megs zipped).
Details are on
their special promo page here, and if you'd like to read along, we've some very nice editions of
The Wind in the Willows in our very own Patricia Clark Memorial e-Book Library.
