bookshelves: listened-to
Read from June 29 to July 04, 2011

Had to keep going to hear the end. I think this is one of my new favorite books. :]
Not sure what kids will think. Curious to find out.


#3 It just gets better.
"I said cockadoodle doo. I don't usually."
"OK. You lot are my mission."



Update #2 So that I don't forget ...
*the space suits that made everyone look like "criminal tangerines"
*Liam just HAD to bump the other dad in the stomach with their big orange inflatable suits

SERIOUSLY FUNNY!!!!


Update #1
I'm in the middle of listening to this while on the treadmill/bike ... embarrassing myself by busting out laughing at gym inappropriate times.

Seriously funny. I've actually exercised LONGER THAN USUAL just to keep listening.

So I don't forget ...
*playing the Big Friendly Giant as a "Little Stars" actor
*the crisps and pop in his dressing room
*being mistaken for the new media studies teacher and leading the entire school out of assembly
*visiting the travel agent and having his mom nix everything
*discovering the 5 different conversations his dad makes


Also--the narrator. It's KIRBY HEYBORNE--LDS movie "star." How did I not know he did audiobooks? Funny thing is, he also did Little Brother which I downloaded just yesterday but haven't started listening to yet. The accent took a little getting used to but this main character is supposed to be from England.

Paty I want you to tell me how you are downloading these books and what you are listening to them on. Ipod? Iphone? My eyes get to tired to read, I would rather listen as I walk. ;)


Angie Overdrive (SAPL or NEISD collection). But not to iPod/iPhone. To a Windows Media based mp3 player. Overdrive works WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better with non-Apple products. Which is kind of a bummer because I am liking my Mac more and more every day. Have to steal my parents' computer for audiobook downloads. ;]

Paty ok. I'm going to try that.
