Some time ago I found an MP3 with the audio from an old production of "Fox in Socks", and today I ran across a video mix that someone put together. It's fun how they put it to a steady beat, which emphasizes the progression from easy to difficult.

Curious...is there a "Talk Like Dr Seuss Day"? Hmmm...

That was absolutely amazing. Do you happen to know who did those readings? That part about the beetles in the puddle . . . jeez. I couldn't even listen it it that fast much less say it that fast.

Other than the musician (Marty Gold), the only artist listed in the MP3 file I have is Marvin Miller, who (I believe) plays Mr Knox. Not sure of the other voices. Here's more info on Marvin (you'll have to manually copy and paste, as the "(actor)" portion IS part of the URL, but won't hotlink properly here)...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Miller_(actor)

In looking this up, I found a CD on Amazon.com that has this track and numerous others. (edit: just ordered the CD)

I have that book on my shelves next to the other VO books. It's fun to read to the kids and see how fast I can go with it. Another good one is "Oh! The Thinks You Can Think!" Not as hairy as Fox in Socks, but still good.
