Definition och Betydelse av "book-and-record set"

What is a "book-and-record set"?

A book-and-record set is a combined package that includes both a book and a corresponding record or audio disc. The book contains the text and illustrations, while the record features an audio narration or sound effects that accompany the story. When used together, the record enhances the reading experience by providing additional audio elements, such as character voices or background sounds, which can make the story more engaging and immersive. This format was popular in the mid-20th century and is now less common, but it remains a nostalgic item for collectors.
