Synopsis

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

Every NPR listener has had at least one "driveway moment" and probably more. You're so captivated by a story on All Things Considered, Weekend Edition, Morning Edition, News & Notes, or another NPR program that you stay in the car to hear it through—even if you've arrived at your own driveway. This eclectic collection gathers all-time favorites, including some suggested by listeners themselves.

Like Scott Simon's tale of his 5-year-old daughter, newly in love with ballet. The story of a scruffy stray cat who wanders into a tough Michigan prison. The one about loan officer Joel Armstrong and the baby ducks he saved. The hilarious account of an in-flight "wardrobe malfunction"—something about an inflatable bra. A man who went to college with $10 and all the hope in the world. A blind date that turned into a lifetime of commitment.

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