  I haven't read a single Harry Potter book, nor have I watched any of the movies. Yet, I recently ordered "The Wisdom of Harry Potter: What Our Favorite Hero Teaches Us About Moral Choices" by Edmund M. Kern.

  Lately, I've been into philosophy, stoicism in particular. I'm also curios about matters of ethical and moral behavior. Basically, I want to understand the appeal of the series to children and adults alike.

  I loved Jim Dale as Mr. Peachum in The Threepenny Opera on Broadway last year.

  I am a librarian who absolutely loves Jim Dale's performance on the recorded renditions of the Harry Potter series. I have read or listened to the entire series and his performance is truly tour de force. Each voice is unique and his dramatic portrayals are flawless. In recorded books, the reader is as important as the story; I can't wait to hear what Mr. Dale does next!

  I have imagined at times that I have seen Harry Potter movies that have (or had, at any rate) not been made. Mr. Dale brings these wonderful books so much to life, that I have found some characterizations in the movies slightly jarring. I wish he could be the reader for all the books I listen to while driving. I hope he chooses to record some adult literature; I expect he could even make Pickwick Papers interesting.
