![]() ![]() All of my kids hated listening to it and started to mimc it. ![]() After ten minutes of listening it becomes grating. However, the book is written in simple sentences which are easy for grade school children to read. The story of Delia and how she covers up the fact that she can't read is compelling. I am writing this review primarily for the parents who might be tempted to purchase it for a car ride or some family listening. So unless you have a reading disability as my son did, chances are you would finish reading the book hours before she does. However, the narrator, who has a lovely voice and does a wonderful job, reads very slowly. Chances are, if you are thinking of listening to this book, it is because it is assigned for a class. (This was the only schoolbook he was ever allowed to listen to as an audiobook). We listened to this book as a family last year when one of my children (who has dyslexia) was assigned this book over the winter vacation and found it too annoying and boring to read. ![]()
