  5. Did not grab that one..

    I did get if you give a pig a pancake and if you give a dog a donut though. As long as they are not taken I will read those. only issue is I have a sore throat and a nasty cold right now and my voice is unpleasant lol. I will hopefully have a better voice tomorrow to record...

  7. Lol you guys are amazing :) I actually have 2 If you Give a Pig a Pancake books, so if you both record it, then I can put 1 CD with each book :) Then kids won't argue over it, either :D

  12. Well, I had 5 people total participate and there were 15 entries total. I have to listen to the last few files that I've received as I've been working 12 - 14 hour days for over a week and haven't had time to listen :p Will let you know within the next couple of days who our winners are! Thank you, THANK YOU to everyone who participated!!!

    Congrats winners! I will be mailing/paying your prizes momentarily.

    Thank you SO MUCH to the 5 of you that read books for me!!! I am in the process of finishing putting them all on CDs where they will be added to my listening center area. I promise to take a picture of it when they are all done and share :) You will be making a bunch of students very surprised and happy next week! I could not thank you enough!

  18. Yay! In all honesty it was fun reading the books once I found a way to get a copy of them... It's not often I really read anything like them :3 Glad we could help!

  19. o3o.. I just learned about this.. My boyfriend is an amateur voice actor and would love doing this but its now like 3 days past what you wanted.. Interesting side fact, when Laura Numeroff sat down to write If you give a mouse a cookie, it was written nearly overnight but the sequel, "Moose/Muffin" took a number of months to complete.. xD

  20. EDIT: Just noticed the winners were already picked. I'm still making my cousin narrate Dr. Seuss in a Morgan Freeman voice. Because why not.
