DOLPHIN SONG AUDIO BOOK

Ruth Wilson, the BAFTA and Golden Globe nominated actress who read the abridged audio book of The White Giraffe, has followed it by reading Dolphin Song. Apart from being one of the nicest people on earth, Ruth has a unique ability to inhabit characters and bring a story to life. Her voice is quite wonderful. By coincidence, she is currently on location in both Namibia, setting for The Elephant’s Tale, and Cape Town, not far from Martine’s fictional home town of Storm Crossing in The White Giraffe series, where she is filming a remake of the 70s sci fi television cult classic, The Prisoner, with Sir Ian McKellen and James Caviezel.

Go to the audio section to hear sample clips of The White Giraffe and Dolphin Song, and an interview with Ruth and I conducted by The Sunday Times‘ children’s book reviewer, Nicolette Jones. The unabridged audio books, read by the very gifted Adjoa Andoh, are available from: www.listeninglibrary.com.
