My son (age 8 ) has these but shouldn't kids of that age be trying to read the books themselves rather than listen to them? serious question.

I think it's fine , my 7 year old reads Charlie and the Chocolate factory all the time and is a good reader but I still read to her at bedtime , these cd's are an extension of that and will only encourage her love of roald dahl. I might rethink the purchase if she wasn't interested in reading herself

Of course, but we keep these in our car and when travelling on a long car journey, these are really, really great (I have the older version of these CDs - different, but equally great, people reading them :-)

I allow one or two audio sessions a week after our 9 year old girl has read a book usually if she says she cannot sleep. These put her out like a light in 30 minutes.
