When a chapter or story begins with Elizabeth's voice, I find myself smiling and getting settled to enjoy however much time Elizabeth reads to me... okay, not just to me, but it feels like it! It is as enjoyable to listen to her talented interpretations as I recall it was when my own mother and father read to me as a child. Thank you Elizabeth! You have the ability to transport your listeners into the magical world of true and valuable escape, as does a good play, opera, or a rare film. I teach English in São Paulo, SP, Brasil and also make voice recordings when called upon by a local studio which prepares English material for learners here in Brasil.

The Enchanted Barn by Grace Livingston Hill read by Gail Mattern, not only is her voice captivating but the story line is capable of being in any era. So if you like a story with a little romance this one could be for you. I loved the Book.

The man is a true artist; he also does Uncle Tom's Cabin and it is phenomenal. That is easily the best audio book I've ever heard.

Though read solely by Clett, each character is read with distinct variations in accent and inflection, adding a sense of drama and intricacy that does justice to such a beloved and respected novel.
