Introducing the EZ-Pod!

Each volume in our new "EZ-Pod" series consists of an iPod containing the audiobook version of an young adult novel, accompanied by a paperback copy of the same novel. With the EZ-Pod, borrowers have the option of listening, reading, or doing both at the same time.
The EZ-Pod was developed specifically for students taking courses in ESL (English as a Second Language) and EAP (English for Academic Purposes), but anyone can enjoy the titles in this series.
