COMPLETE [DR] The Wind in the Willows-mas

[LCaulkins]

May I read Detective 1?

It's yours! Thanks!

[LCaulkins]

My daughter, 10 years old, and my son, 8 years old,are interested in field mice roles. If there are any available.
Thanks!

Yes, Fieldmouse 2 and 3 are both still open. Do they have forum names I can assign those to?

Hey, Amy -

I first saw your comment from my phone, but from my computer, I can see that you're brand new in LibriVox. The Fieldmice roles entail a unique carol that is contributed to by as many readers as we can pull together. It's not the simplest thing in the world to record, so these role wouldn't be the best thing for you guys. However, the kids could certainly help out with a couple of the Sparrow roles.

Have you seen your welcome email from LibriVox? It should include links for you to be able to do what is called the 1-Minute Test, which is no real test - it's just an "exercise" to make sure your system and technical specs are set up correctly before you do all the work in a longer recording. You'll need to square that away first thing, and then find a section somewhere in a project to request.

Regarding your kids - many people have young children who participate in LibriVox from time to time. It's wonderful to have their voices! In the cases I'm familiar with, the parent makes a LibriVox account for the child, using completely anonymous names (like LittlePeanut or Unicorn), and maintains control of the access and interaction. That way, each child receives the credit for their work under their psuedonym.

Welcome to LibriVox! Let me know if you have any questions, and I'll do my best to help.

Thanks for your reply!
We’ve been using Librivox as a resource in our homeschool for about four years, but never thought to register with an account till now. My daughter was showing her grandma how to use it and came across this version of Wind in the Willows in progress. Seeing there were parts that kids could play, she begged me to request a part.

I’ll go through the directions with them and the swallow parts. But you can count them in for Swallow 1 and 2.

Thanks again!
Amy

Thanks! PL OK

No worries - I totally get it!

[LCaulkins]

Cool! I'll hold these for them - let me know when you have accounts set up for them, and let me know their forum names. Then I can get the sections officially assigned for them.

[LCaulkins]

Sounds good!

Hey, Marie - as Amy's kids are taking the Sparrow roles, would you like any of the other remaining characters?

Badger 11

Hi! This will be my first ever dramatic work part. Not quite ready to sing a song as the field mice and the remaining parts appear to be men. But thanks for offering
