Audio Reviews:

"This beautiful story of love and devotion, and classic coming of age novel comes alive with the talented voice of Terry Bregy. A wise selection for school library collections."
                     -School Library Journal

"This audiotape of the YA classic features an animated, emotionally rich reading by Bregy -this is an excellent project and the reading is first-rate."
                     -Booklist

"Bregy is able to convey a sense of age and experience as well as a sense of innocence. His reading draws the listener into the continuing debate about traditional values - this is a very good recording of a powerful book."
                     -Audiofile

"Peck ably writes about tragedy and the humorous aspects of growing up, making this a truly compelling glimpse of a way of life that will fascinate listeners."
                     -Publishers Weekly

SYNOPSIS:

Twelve year old Rob is growing up on a dirt-poor farm in Vermont in the 1930's. His parents have become Shakers and their way of life and values make for some interesting listening and discussion as Rob faces the anguish of loss and learns lifelong lessons about family love and a caring community.
