Product Description
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 "driveway moment" 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 recollections of deputies from the U.S. Marshall Service who enforced court-ordered school desegregation. 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 former KKK member who converted to Judiasm.
These literate, intelligent, profoundly touching stories are worth hearing over and over again, and now you don’t have to stay in your car.
What is a Driveway MomentSM? Maybe it’s happened to you as it has to countless others. . . . You’re driving home, listening to a story on NPR. Suddenly, you find yourself in your driveway (or parking space or parking garage). Rather than turn the radio off, you stay in your car to hear the piece to the end. It’s a Driveway Moment.
The NPR Driveway Moments Series collects these “best of” stories so that you are never more than a “play” away from a Driveway Moment.
