YouTube "Read Aloud" Book Videos for Kids
I follow a blog called "Control Alt Achieve: transforming education with technology" (http://www.controlaltachieve.com/). In December of 2016 they posted an article about Video Books. The post includes a list of suggested YouTube channels and playlists for a variety of book titles.
Please take a look at the blog post from their sight titled "YouTube 'Reading Aloud' Books Videos for Kids (http://www.controlaltachieve.com/2016/12/youtube-read-aloud.html)"
Consider pairing these videos with EDpuzzle
(https://at-udl.blogspot.com/2018/03/edpuzzle-guest-writers.html) for an enriching experience.
