Storynory: Free Audio Stories for Kids

Found this nice website - http://storynory.com you can just play audiobooks right on the webpage and totally free. The initial part could be a bit annoying it has advertisement in the beginning but you can quickly go past that. Natasha does a great job!

The other interesting thing (and a hidden one) is if you double click on any of the words -it brings up a translation menu. I think this is very nice and there are quite a few languages available, but usefulness - not too sure

Ever wanted to write stories?

http://wemakestories.com/ is a unique suite of digital tools for children to create, print and share a variety of innovative story forms. Once you create an account you will be able to create pop-up books, customize audiobooks, design their own comics, produce exciting treasure maps and learn how to create a variety of entertaining adventures.

Unfortunately they do not offer a free service so one needs to pay $9.99/£5.99 but looks very interesting
