Sharing picture books is fun! In this monthly podcast series, I will be releasing one new picture book reading each month. This are not animations or "based on" the original books. These ARE the original books, being read just like you might choose to read them to your children or grandchildren. These video files are formatted for download and viewing on iPod/Zune-style media players (mpeg4). Please note: MOST PCs DO NOT HAVE MEDIA PLAYERS THAT SUPPORT THE TYPICAL PODCAST VIDEO FORMAT. If you don't need or want to download this file for a portable player, you may see the Webast (.flv) version on your computer. Please click on the logo to the right and you will be directed to my Picture Book Podcast Homepage and an online, embedded version of this podcast. http://mylmcweb.com/picturebookpodcast.htm Copyright 2009 William P.
