Long trip- Audio Books for 4 year old

[limette]

If all goes well we'll be taking a 4 day drive to our new house on the east coast in July.

Any recommendations for audio books that a four year old would listen too?

My dd loves read-alouds of any kind at this point(also age 4) , we're currently reading Charlottes Web. I've also come across http://storynory.com I haven't personally listened to anything there though.

Charlotte's Web was the only one I could think of but considering we are moving to a farm where we will be raising animals to eat might not be the best choice!

My dd is very.. clinical about the whole thing.

Also on our upcoming reading list: Paddington Bear, Mouse and the Motorcycle, Mr.Poppers Penguins and Little House in the Big Woods.

I second Mouse and the Motorcycle. But even more than that, Jim Weiss:

Some of the CDs are on Amazon. Uncle Wiggly and Animal Tales are both awesome! We must have 10 of his CDs now.

Hope the trip goes well.

p.s. Story Nory is pretty good, but DS would not have listened to them when he was four. Of course, YMMV, but I wouldn't count on those for a 4-year-old.

Jim Weiss is great.

Other audio books that have been popular (some long, some short):

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs by Judy and Ron Barrett

Dragonrider by Cornelia Funke

Heidi by Johanna Spyri

If you do not have to listen, too, the Magic Treehouse audio books are almost always a hit. However, I would have the kid use headphones because they make me want to tear my eyes out after the first ten minutes.
