Last year for Christmas, I narrated and produced "The Grinch That Stole Christmas," burned it to a CD and gave it to a niece and nephew, along with a copy of the book. It was hard work and I'm proud of the final result, so I thought I'd share it this year.

There is a musical element when it's time for the reader to turn the page. (it gets a little old if you're not following along with the book) I'm especially happy with the way the music and sound effects weave throughout the piece and lend themselves to the story line.* Theater of the mind.
It was Emily's idea for me to narrate the book, and she lent her talent by playing the part of Cindy Lou Who.

We're spending the week in New England with family. Merry Christmas.
*I used music from The Abyss, Phantom of the Opera, Scarface and more, but they worked well, and it's not like I'm publishing it for profit.

Sure - now you tell us...I would have bought that from you - would be perfect for in the car when traveling for HOURS and Mr. Incredible isn't along.
Cute, cute! Happy Christmas!
I'm a little late in giving it a listen, but that was great! (As usual.)
Maybe you can post it again next year?
So you won't be selling me a copy? Guess I will listen for free.
That sounds really cool! Your niece and nephew are very lucky!
Happy Holidays!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Have a wonderful 2008!
