Historia
This hilarious, heartfelt, and soaring adventure will delight fans of The Goonies and Indiana Jones. Performed as a 1930s radio drama, it’s bursting with humor for all ages, orchestral scoring, and some of the most talented voices on Broadway. When their ace pilot parents (and adorable puppy) mysteriously disappear over the Pacific, the Flamingo Sisters - Flo, Faye, and Franny - escape the clutches of their evil Uncle Freidrich (who believes girls should never pilot aeroplanes) and join a flying circus.

Wish a negative star rating was possible

Annoying narration and silly story. Not clever a tall. Could not stomach it to finish. Maybe the end is redeeming.

Historia
A fascinating account of the world’s most famous disease - polio - told as you have never heard it before. Epidemics of paralysis began to rage in the early 1900s, seemingly out of nowhere. Doctors, parents, and health officials were at a loss to explain why this formerly unheard-of disease began paralyzing so many children. Why did this disease start to become such a horrible problem during the late 1800s? Why did it affect children more often than adults? Why was it originally called teething paralysis by mothers and their doctors?

interesting text but narrator is too emphatic
Revisado: 05-20-20
I am interested in this book and will choose to read a hard copy. The narrator is too empathetic in reading style making it difficult to listen to. It is rare for an author to be able to read his own work well as everything receives the same spoken emphasis.

Historia
Twenty-seven-year-old Sarah Thebarge had it all - a loving boyfriend, an Ivy League degree, and a successful career - when her life was derailed by an unthinkable diagnosis: aggressive breast cancer. After surviving the grueling treatments - though just barely - Sarah moved to Portland, Oregon, to start over. There, a chance encounter with an exhausted African mother and her daughters transformed her life again.

Interesting story as we encounter the "invisible"
Revisado: 05-17-20
The story is interesting. Most authors have difficulties carrying their own narration. This one was not an exception. It was somewhat difficult to listen to because the author is very emphatic in her tone throughout the narrative. I found the two storylines compelling and challenging to how I view those who are "invisible" in our society: cancer patients, refugees (I have volunteered with refugees for years) and then those who society outcasts for other reasons. The author accurately records the struggles of the refugees and immigrants. I also appreciate the author being open about her own struggles with cancer and God. However, I thought I was tracking with the timelines of the two stories but the last five-six chapters left me confused on this spot. And since these timelines were very important to the story line and the author's development, I think these timelines needed to be clearly portrayed throughout the book.

Descriptive writing
Revisado: 11-22-18
The author is very descriptive in her writing. You can imagine the scenes and characters. The story itself is interesting but the consecutive telling of many generations makes it a challenge to follow.
I will look for more of this narrator’s work. Caroline Lewis is exceptional in her ability to read stories into life.
