Read by Nathaniel Parker
Unabridged Length: 8.9 Hours
Listened at 2x Speed
I'll admit that I don't listen to nearly as many Middle Grade level books as I probably should, and this one makes the case for it. Mr. Parker provides one of the most entertaining performances I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. More than the huge variety of voices he provides, all with distinct accents and easily distinguished personalities attached, he also exudes an unmistakable feeling that he's having fun in everything he's doing.

Overall, a fantastic and memorable production through and through. Though it's hard to say whether the production's overall tone was tweaked for the age of reader, or if the story itself simply lent itself more readily toward that joy-filled reading, I'd highly recommend this audiobook for listeners young and young-at-heart regardless.
