Audiobook

THE PAIN AND the Great One hardly agree on anything. But deep down, they know they can count on each other, especially at school, where it often takes two to figure things out. Like when that first baby tooth falls out on the school bus. Or when an unwanted visitor on Bring Your Pet to School Day needs to be caught. Or worst of all, when a scary bully says you’re burnt toast. On days like these it can feel good not to go it alone. (And don’t forget Fluzzy the cat, who knows a thing or two himself.)

      Whether they're wrestling with bullies, a loose tooth, name changes, a "breakfast cafŽ," or pets--stuffed or genuine--Judy Blume has a game plan for her young characters, and Kathleen McInerney has the perfect pitch. The arrogance of third-grader Abigail (aka "The Great One") and the mischievousness of her brother, first-grader Jake (aka "The Pain"), are terrifically expressed by McInerney. Occasional adult voices softly intervene, but the stories are carried by sibling teamwork and rivalry. Playground and classroom encounters are all gleefully depicted in these seven episodes. A cameo appearance by Blume as the voice of Fluzzy the cat will also delight young, and adult, listeners. Perfect fare for sharing in the car or classroom. D.P.D. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
