Voices in Reading--Narrators and eAudiobooks

eAudiobooks are especially tied to the voices of the narrator(s).  Some are recorded by a full cast and are almost an audio play.  Others are read by one narrator who often modifies his or her voice for the different characters in the book.

Jim Dale is the narrator of the Harry Potter audiobooks.   He has a distinctive voice and makes the stories very interesting.  Scholastic is the publisher of the Harry Potter books and, in the past year, has been developing another idea for more best selling books for the youth market. 

The new idea is the Thirty-Nine Clues series.  David Pittu is the narrator for all of the audiobooks in this series.  They are written by several award-winning authors.  The first book in the series is The Maze of Bones by Rick Riordan.
