Here's a bedtime story for Ioan to read Ella.....he has recorded the Welsh myth for BBC Wales and you can listen to it here (those that can pick up the BBC....)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/history/sites/kids/myths/morgana_story.shtml
There are other lovely readings on the site too and it's well worth poking around, even for big kids like us!

I love this kind of thing! Right up my alley (as we say here in the US)!! Such a cute story and done so well. Ella is one lucky little girl to have such a versatile-voiced Dad.

That's very nice! I must use these web page when I'm babysitting my nephew and niece.

That would be a good idea,Frances. Hope Ioan does more things like this---it certainly puts some of his many talents to good use,doesn't it?

| I wonder how long ago it was done? He has certainly done a lot of audio recordings throughout his career. If I recall correctly, he did audio recordings as a boy for projects for his grandparents. Does that sound familiar to anyone else? |

Hadn't heard about that before,GG. But,it would make perfect sense,if so.

| Wauw, I liked that story. Horatio has a wonderful voice. And his English is so pure. I really enjoyed listening to it. His voice was so close and it made me happy. |

There's a point where IG takes a deep breath, just before he speaks... did anyone catch it?
It made me shiver.... |

| He needs to voice Howl for Howl's Moving Castle. Although the English version was done by Christian Bale with an American accent. Ioan would be great. |

| Stevie, I agree with you. And I am glad that Ioan is doing this, and like they say, he has such a warm voice, a voice that makes you stay listening to him. |
