I’m more quibbling when people say they read a book when they listened to an audiobook.

And I’m saying I personally would consider that person to have read the book. They took in the same words you did, their brain processed it the same way. (If they’re one of those who hear the things they read in their head, even less difference, cause then it’s just the voice saying it aloud)

So my daughter read dozens of books before she could read.

I mean both stimulate the brain the same (positive) way. She got the same words, heard the same story, processed it the same way. So I'd say yes.
