Just one note for chapter 10.

(8:58) "Then Chunky was taken to a large building, where his cage was set down among those containing Gimpy, Short Tooth, the lion, the monkeys and others."

The middle part of this sentance (the bolded part) seems to have been cut out. It will probably be easiest to rerecord the whole sentence

Besides that, great recording!!! :D
Thanks.

Wow, I really messed up that sentence. Here is the new file which I just uploaded:

Just one note for Chapter 11, at (0:14), the Librivox disclaimer is supposed to end with, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. CHUNKY'S NEW TRICK ", instead you have, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. Chapter 11 CHUNKY'S NEW TRICK "
If you can remove the extra chapter 11, this will be all set!
Thanks!!! :D

Great job with Chapter 3! :D Just a few small PL-notes!

First, the volume is a little low at 86 decibels. The acceptable range is from 86-92 decibels with a preferred volume of 89 decibels.

(0:09) you read for further information the correct wording is for more information kind of nit-picky but the wording in the disclaimer needs to be exact

(0:17) the Librivox disclaimer is supposed to end with, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. CHUNKY IS BITTEN ", instead you have, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. Chapter 3 CHUNKY IS BITTEN "

The reading of the chapter itself was perfect and I enjoyed your rendition of it!

I will PL Chapter 4 tomorrow!

Sorry for the delay but here are the PL notes for chapter 4!
(0:14) the Librivox disclaimer is supposed to end with, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. CHUNKY IS CAUGHT ", instead you have, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. Chapter 4 CHUNKY IS CAUGHT "

Besides that, the recording was great! Thank you! :D

Great job with chapter 1! Just one PL note, the recording ends at 13:16 which means there are 4 minutes and 37 seconds of silence at the end. :shock: There should only be 5 seconds! So if you could cut the ending silence and reupload it that would be great! Besides that, great recording! :D

Great job with Chapter 2! Just a few notes...
(0:24) the Librivox disclaimer is supposed to end with, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. CHUNKY IS SURPRISED ", instead you have, "Chunky, the Happy Hippo, by Richard Barnum. Chapter 2 CHUNKY IS SURPRISED "

(2:00) you read “Oh, look! Big Foot is going to try something to Chunky!” the correct statement was “Oh, look! Big Foot is going to do something to Chunky!”

(7:23) the section "“What’s the matter?” asked Big Foot. He thought he was too large to mind without first asking questions." was repeated. The second version of it sounds better so the first version should be removed.
