In the enhanced version of e-readers, Jim Carrey reads the book, voicing all of the characters and the majority of the sound effects. In addition, Carrey and his daughter, Jane, a singer-songwriter, perform four original, fully-produced songs that relate to the story and characters.
There is also a variety of visual effects, movements and incidental characters (voiced by Carrey) that make the book a rollicking rich experience for readers aged four to eight, as well as “their grown-ups!” The songs are also available separately in the iTunes store now and soon through other e-tailers.
Carrey is just finishing work on his latest film, “Dumb and Dumber To,” the long anticipated sequel to his iconic “Dumb and Dumber.”
On his occasional weekend shooting breaks, Carrey attended book signings for How Roland Rolls in New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Toronto, delighting thousands of supportive fans with autographs and photos.
