A review by alyshadeshae
The One and Only Bob by Katherine Applegate
5.0
So I read along with the audio book because I was really curious about the fact that Danny DeVito did the narration. He doesn't exactly have the most pleasing voice, so I didn't know what to expect. (Thank to the author's note, I know that DeVito voiced Bob in a movie that I didn't know existed, do that explains the narrator choice.)
Surprisingly, DeVito is phenomenal as a narrator. It sounded like a hyper little yippy dog come to life. Absolutely perfect.
That being said, I don't know why I keep reading stories from Katherine Applegate and expecting them to be fun and light. They're always amazing, but they're always deep and important and filled with the most important types of life lessons. I love them, but they aren't light reading for all that they are written for children.
