There are a number of locations for children audiobookks. I found most of these sights tend to have chapter books or books that would not hold my student's attention. I tried another approach by Googling "free audiobooks for preschool" and came up with the following locations that held some promise. The problem was most still cost money, apparently free means something different for me vs. them.

The sights that were promising, but you would have to pay to get the whole book.

This offers classic stories such as The Three Bears, The Three Little Pigs, The Emperor's New Clothes, and many more. You can view a portion of the book before you purchase it. The neat thing was it could let you read it to self or it would read it to you and it would highlight the words it was reading in blue so beginning readers could follow along at their own skill level.

This location offered short books where some books had audio and others were read it to yourself. The audio was student lead, meaning you had to click to get the reading to occur by clicking the audio symbol. You also had to click the arrow to turn the page. This would be ok mid-year, but in the beginning of the year, some of my children have never even touched a computer.

iTunes had the best offer with familiar books like the VERY HUNGRY CATEPILLAR and other books that my students would like.
