Mein Lesejahr 2022 starte ich mit meinem Lieblingsmärchen "Aschenputtel". Ich habe es schon so oft gelesen und verschiedenste Verfilmungen im TV gesehen und werde nie müde, es immer wieder zu lesen, zu sehen und auch zu hören.

I am continuing to experiment with the scripts I've developed for cutting up audiobooks and turning them into multimedia LARA texts (more details here if you're curious). I've tried French and English, so I thought I'd move to a different language and do something in German. What better place to sta......more

I love the creepy original version of the story hehe! Reflects the reality of people's greed and what one can do for property. “Listen,” said the mother secretly. “here’s a knife, and if the slipper is still too tight for you, then cut off a piece of your foot. It will hurt a bit. BUT WHAT DOES THAT......more

Hermoso, con palomas que pican ojos y dejan ciegas a las personas malvadas por su falsedad y envidia. Córtate los dedos, córtate un pedazo del talón, pues cuando seas reina, no irás nunca a pie... WTF?......more

Quotes

“This agreeable ensemble cast rendering of Cinderella holds appeal for fairy-tale fans of all ages. Narrator Michael Dick’s seasoned voice is ideal as the story quickly shifts from Cinderella’s kindness to the competitive jealousy of Esmé and Agatha, her stepsisters. Georgia Lee Schultz’s endearing portrayal of Cinderella is convincing whether she’s dealing with her nasty step-family, a desperate beggar, or the prince. Superior sound effects such as the stepmother’s demanding bell, Cinderella’s sweeping, and the clock striking midnight add to the ambiance. Mary Ellen Herder is fully believable as the spiteful, greedy stepmother whose list of chores for Cinderella is never-ending. Listeners will be entertained by Cinderella’s conversations with her cat, Mr. Pettipaws, and the shrewdly imparted conclusion.” AudioFile

“Georgia Lee Schultz does a splendid job as Cinderella, embodying the sweet, youthful innocence and kindness of the character perfectly. Other notable performances are Brady Van Vaerenbergh as the Prince and Ellin Wallin as the Old Woman and Fairy Godmother, both of whom fill their respective parts very well.” J. D. Sutter, Audio Theatre Central, Porchlight Family Media
