Lori, 
    As a fan of audio books I can say that the reader  can make all the 
difference. I would say to those who would like examples of how  to read a loud 
and 
how not to, listen to an audio book of Harry Potter  or Lord of the Rings and 
then listen to Dan Brown's Angels and  Demons. Another conference note I have 
savored is one from Shelly Harwayne,  " The most important thing a teacher 
can do to help children become readers is  to read a loud a good book and read 
it well."
