I was so pleased to see you there! About doing the voices: it occurred to me when I got ready for my first reading that adults are just big kids. I always did voices when my kids were little. Their favourite story was "The Squirrel Twins' Ride," because I did high, squeaky squirrels, a deep, deep old owl and as many other voices as there were animals. Thanks, Heather.

We had a lot of fun, although my voices certainly weren't that good. I loved reading to my boy when he was young, and I always did the voices, and even did voices for his stuffed animals.
