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."
