Synopsis

Hosts and listeners select their favorite stories from the National Public Radio archives, celebrating life, love, hope—and cookies.

This eclectic collection gathers all-time favorites, including some suggested by listeners themselves.

These literate, intelligent, profoundly touching stories are worth hearing over and over again, and now you don’t have to stay in your car.
