Cudos on the acting!

Where does Perfect Child, Imperfect rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I originally selected this book because I do have a pre-teen son who is Autistic. First I read the text, and then I listened to it as an audio book. When listening to the book, I was able to feel the pain and the terror of this young boy in the author's voice. The girl (who I was impressed with her boy voice) did an excellent job researching and getting the feel of an autistic child.

Very informative

If you could sum up Perfect Child, Imperfect in three words, what would they be?

Even though I do not work with this age student, I definitely see the similarities amongst mine and the character in the book. I enjoyed how the narrator was able to see through the eyes of the character and know how he is feeling.

Waste of Time

Stupid story, poorly written and so poorly narrated, it was almost impossible to listen to. I would suggest the girl who narrated should find something that doesn't involve acting or reading aloud and the author should not give up his day job
