Reading to Pre-schoolers

Hello!  This podcast contains my tips for reading to young children.  I created this in Audacity, importing the background music from an original CD.  I believe this file would be useful for classroom instruction regarding interaction with children.  I used a standard fade-in and fade-out, but the other effects are what make this a fun alternative to just bringing books to class.  To improve realism, I modulated my voice recording to sound more like the actual characters' voices in the story.  Please be kind with your comments, as I normally don't even like it when my wife hears me read to our children.  Thanks, TIm
