Children's audio books good for listening practice?


I'm looking for a website with free audio recordings of Japanese children
books. I found one a long time ago but alas I lost my bookmark to that site.
I'm planning to go through those books since it'll be easier to follow the
japanese they speak as opposed to listening to japanese talk shows and such
for adults. Is this a good way to work on my listening?

Anyone have a recommendation?




I would think it would be ok though they sometime use pronunciations that are
easier for kids to understand, informal japanese, and words typically used by
kids.

I'm not quite sure what your level is, but watching Love (renai) dramas with
japanese subtitles would be my recommendation to improve your listening.

Another option is what is called Shadow books, where you read along with a CD.
Helps with your japanese reading as well. These books are usually broken up
into levels corresponding to the JLPT levels.
