Good book, terrible performance

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I would have someone else read.

Would you be willing to try another book from Catherine Ponder? Why or why not?

The book itself was good. Yes, I would try another book by the author as long as it was read by someone else.

How could the performance have been better?

The woman mispronounced words, sounded, in some chapters, as if she had a head cold. Her dramatizations of non-narrative text were laughably melodramatic. The sound editing, too, was awful, like a duct-tape connected Frankenstein. Intonations were completely out of place in countless sections. I could hear the breaks in the editing.

Was Pray and Grow Rich worth the listening time?

Barely. I would have strongly preferred to read it.

Any additional comments?

I hope that, immediately after creating this audio book, the lady who read it moved onto a career better suited to her abilities--miming, maybe.

Just great!

I thoroughly enjoyed being reminded of basic truths about prayer. The book brings to life the practical benefits of prayer for all of us willing to accept it as a legitimate part of the human journey and experience. Prayer is relevant. Prayer is dynamic. Prayer is the foundation of the abundant life, which the human experience was designed to be, and which can be ours with a refocusing of our thoughts, commitments, and our actions. Let's put the principles into action and pray! I have been blessed by this audiobook.

Average effort by the narrator. But this does not detract from the value of the experience.

Glad to have a new Catherine Ponder Book!

I loved the material! Great principles! Great affirmations. I wish Catherine was still doing her own narratives.

Worst Narrator Ever!

Would you try another book from Catherine Ponder and/or Kathryn Leech?

I own several Catherine Ponder books. No problem with the author.

What other book might you compare Pray and Grow Rich to and why?

Neville Goddard works

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Kathryn Leech?

Anyone who could pronounce the work Colonel. The narrator actually said "Coll ul nell" Horrible cadence, made the whole book a miserable experience.

What character would you cut from Pray and Grow Rich?

The Narrator

Any additional comments?

This is the worst narrator I have ever heard. I hope no one paid this woman to narrate.

I enjoyed the book

the techniques are simple practical and well worth learning. I'll review the book and incorporate these techniques into my daily life in order to get the results that I now know where possible

Horrible narrator makes this impossible to listen to!

I returned this audio book because the narrator was awful. It is a shame because the content was excellent.

one of the best s audio book I ever listen to

the narrator was excellent really clear it Also keep you on the right track .

The Book of Learning and Grow

I loved this book. It was wasn't a struggle to finish, I just listened to it at night.
I learned about prayer and the narration was excellent. Catherine Ponder was a excellent teacher, also.

One Of My Most Precious Books!

Any additional comments?

This book feels like a revelation to me and I have not enough words to express my gratitude for the author of that great work. In my opinion one of the books which should be taught in school; would have be so happy as a school kid. And yes - there are a few glitches concerning the audio, but they are far outweighed by the narrator*s warm, sincere and kind voice. One feels that she loves not only reading but also the content of this masterpiece. I suggest to do some work on the original tape. But again the content is just awesome, I highly recommend this audio! ♥♥♥

An average read

This recording had not been one of the best compared to my previous audible purchases.
