lifeasdaddy - The Wiggles story book reader speaks with a funny accent.
Edward likes the Wiggles and Yesterday we were exploring their updated website. There's a story book section with vision and sound of a story. The story is read by a man with a North American accent. Look and Listen here.
The Wiggles are proud to be Australian. So it's an interesting choice of voice actor.
.
The Wiggles are, in fact, Australia's reigning Exporter of the Year.
Maybe that explains the accent ...
