Audio Books

This week we talked about audio books. There are pros and cons. They're ideal for students with visual impairment. They're the easy way out for students who do not want to read. How can we introduce audio books to students and then tell them to go read several hundred pages? The students who should be able to read chapter books seem to lose their love for reading with each passing year. How can we find a balance for students without making them dependent on audio books?
