Thankyou sorenr, I think splodgenoodles might enjoy this site you showed me.

Now I want to volunteer. It's just like the project I talked all of my friends into when I was in year 8. We read Susan Cooper, The Dark is Rising, for a literacy project at school. Five of us sat in a room, took parts and read the first 5 chapters into a tape recorder. The tapes were intended to encourage non readers into reading after hearing the beginning of a book. I've always had doubts about my choice of book, but I loved it so much I wanted everyone to read it. I still hear my voice as Farmer Dawson when I re-read the book.

Besides, I really enjoy the sound of my own voice and love reading out loud, particularly children's stories. I can't wait to start with Rose.
