How to get 2 books for FREE
If you sign up for a free trial of Audible you can download 2 audiobooks for free. They are yours to keep FOREVER, and you and your child can listen to the books together at home or in the car. You won't be charged a thing if you cancel before your free trial ends.
My dad introduced me to audiobooks when I was a little girl. We used to listen to them on long trips and on my way to summer camp. It's something I always remember.
How to get books delivered in 3 days or less for free
Four words. Amazon Prime Trial Membership. If you have never been an Amazon Prime Member you can try it free for 30 days.

I liked Amazon Prime and I loved not having to pay separate shipping on all of my products.
If you are an EBT cardholder you can become an Amazon Prime member, after your trial, for only $5.99 a month! That's a steal. EBT cardholders sign-up here. You cannot beat that price!
