We don't record the books. The interaction is too precious for that! She reads them aloud to me. The time we spend together is priceless!

How cool!  I've been on a not-so-subtle campaign to get my family to read
books into audio for me for the last couple of years.  It'd make for GREAT
Christmas and birthday presents, and I wouldn't mind if they stuck with
cassettes.

I've been able to cajole people into reading aloud _to_ me, since the
personal interaction makes it more worth their while.  Any tips for
encouraging family members to do this? I've tried basic enthusiasm, low
cost, and straight guilt.  Any other ideas? [grin]

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity.
