A captivating family audiobook will make the miles fly by, so check out our list and consult the parent reviews to find one that will appeal to your crew. Keep in mind when you're choosing family audiobooks for road trips that you'll want to pick books that appeal to a variety of ages - including adults!

Not just for listening in the car, these are also good audiobooks for kids to enjoy at bedtime, or just when you want a break from reading aloud. If your kids love podcasts, audiobooks are a great next step.
Many family audiobooks are free through the library, but a subscription to Amazon's Audible will be worth it if your family loves the format!

Chomp
Kelly R said: My tween and I enjoy listening to audiobooks together, and this was a surprise favorite. Narrated by James Van Der Beek (remember him?), it's a story about a father and son who wrangle animals in Florida and are hired by a wilderness survival reality show.
