Publisher's summary

Narrated by Academy Award winner Kate Winslet comes the sequel to Michael Buckley’s tragically hilarious family listen The Weirdies.

The Weirdie Triplets and Miss Emily are settling into Deadeye Manor when, against all logic, their parents return from the dead! Even worse, they want Barnacle, Melancholy and Garlic back, sparking a truly unusual effort to prove that Miss Emily is the best parent for them.

Will the family get justice? Will the triplets succeed in their ridiculous fundraisers to pay for the lawyer? Why are there so many raccoons in the courtroom? The only way to find out is to listen to the tragic, troubling, absurd tale of how the Weirdies get weirder.

It takes more than great storytelling to be the right fit for each type of road trip. What works for a cross-country adventure may not be quite right for a quick day trip. What you listen to with your significant other may not be (read: is definitely not) the same as what you listen to with a carload of kids. And when driving solo, sometimes what you want is a little company. No matter what kind of journey you have coming up, we’ve got you covered.

Creative and Funny and not woke!

Absolutely loved The Weirdies with my 11 year old. The writing and the reading were witty and excellent. Thank you Audible for a Non-Woke story. It's all about the story telling. We can't wait for the next installation!!
