"This week, my family crossed an important life threshold: every member has now heard J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings read aloud-and sung aloud-in its entirety."
"Performing a story aloud, at a set time and place, creates a ritual that binds the listeners together. It forces people to experience the story at the breath's pace, not the eye's."
"You will learn, if you pay close attention as you read, how to emphasize and inflect meaning through sound and cadence; you will learn how to adopt speech patterns and 'do the voices' of the various characters."
