My brother, who is blind, is a big fan of Jim Dale's readings. He says
that he gets a very good sense of the characters by the way Dale
speaks for them.

Yes, I am blind, and I love Jim Dale's readings. He does different voices
for every character, and he is consistent. So, his voice for Harry is the
same in all the books. His Dumbledore voice sort of grew over time,
changing a little by the end of the first book, but after that it was the
same in all. He seems to be able to give the characters life, and they come
to my imagination as I picture them from the text. No matter if the dialog
is attributed or not, you can always tell who's speaking the lines.
i've heard great things about the UK versions, and I'd like to hear them as
well.
