It’s so nice to know there are others who share the same sentiment. The Secret Garden and A Little Princess is not the same when read by someone else. I listen to these when I really want to relax and it takes me to another place.

Happy Year of the “Tigre”!

You’ve inspired me to do some volunteering of my own. Thank you for doing what you do.

I’m a big fan of audiobooks, and am extraordinarily fond of a lot of Burnett’s works.

I’ve read a book onto tape for my husband once, and know the work involved. It’s very well-done and I’m grateful that you decided to do so.

Great work!

It’s not strange at all — this is one of the things that’s so wonderful about the internet. We can connect with complete strangers if we have a common interest!

Happy new year, and I hope you find lots more books to listen to at LibriVox :)

How lovely it is to be able to express myself to you, for the first time, after having listened to so many of your audiobooks. The Secret Garden, and A little princess being two of my favorites; I had noticed you took the time to do both of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s work and wondered if you felt as strongly for those two as I do.. (after reading above in these comments, apparently you do.. lol

Please excuse how strange this message might have come across, it’s always so weird (the internet is) to hear from a complete stranger who’s eager to express some form of gratitude or appreciation..

I dunno, I suppose one just always feels “connected” in some way.. during a time, forever preserved when you read out a favorite book that has touched a heart or two..

Either way, thank you very much!

Many warm hugs and regards

And may you have a Happy New Year!

Sincerely,
– Ariana

With our new LibriVox catalog system, it’s very easy to find all the recordings made by a certain reader. Just go to http://librivox.org/newcatalog/visitor.php
and type a name in the “reader” field. (kayray or kara, for instance ;-) Set the “Status” dropdown to “Complete” and hit “Search”. Presto!

I just found your recording of Struwwelpeter and it’s great!! Thank you very much for your work – I will listen to some of your english recordings for sure.

Greetings from a new fan from Germany,

Kri, yes getting feedback is so nice. Sometimes I wonder if anyone out there is listening ;-)

I have a (real) name similar to your Hungarian fan. I have been listening to your reading of _A Little Princess_ recently, and I was planning to email you to say that your voice is wonderful to listen to. :-)

Happy New Year
