Audiobooks are a brilliant way to entertain and engage children as an alternative to TV, on a long journey or to relax before bed.

Ladybird Audio Adventures is an original series for 4-to 7-year-olds; a new, entertaining and engaging way for children to learn about the world around them. These are special stories written exclusively for audio with fun sound and musical effects, perfect for listening at home, before bed and on long journeys.

These fact-filled journeys travel through time and space teaching children all about five fascinating topics: Dinosaur Times, The Animal Kingdom, Outer Space, Amazing Vehicles and Deep Sea Dive.

These audiobooks help children learn about their environment on journey of discovery with the narrators Ben Bailey Smith (aka Doc Brown, rapper, comedian and writer) and Sophie Aldred (best known for her role as Ace in Doctor Who).

These audiobooks are aimed at children aged 4+, for family listening and learning and development for young minds.

We all know how hard car journeys, or in fact any journey on a plane or a train, can be and listening to the audiobook entertained the children perfectly. It also meant less screen time, which is what we can often use on a car journey. - Dear Bear and Beany Blog


'A lovely story of space exploration with factually correct but yet simple and approachable explanations of the different Solar System bodies, and even covering complex ideas such as the Big Bang, light speed, and planetary orbits. The balance of science and entertainment in the audiobook is just right, offering an ideal introduction to space science, with enthusiastic narration from Ben Bailey Smith and his 'astro-bird' companion'. - Dr Natasha Vasiliki Almeida, Curator of Meteorites at the Natural History Museum
