READ IT AGAIN!

If you dream of reading to children as well as Mrs. Doubtfire does, this audio program is a first step. Patrick Fraley, a voice-over artist and father of four boys, shares his love of reading aloud. He offers ideas on what and where to read and then embarks on some serious exercises for improving reading aloud skills. Fraley highlights many of the elements on which AudioFile judges narrators. The program is truly instructional for those who want to hone their skills, but even casual listeners will come away with a tip or two. This program is a must for librarians who do story-hour and for teachers and parents who want to improve their own enjoyment of reading aloud, as well as their audiences'.
