Publisher's Summary

Jemmy, once a poor boy living on the streets, now lives in a castle. But as the whipping boy, he bears the punishment when the prince misbehaves, as such; the two boys have little in common and even less reason to like one another.

    Story
    "Excellent story. Excellent reader."
    What made the experience of listening to The Whipping Boy the most enjoyable?

    The energy the reader put into the story.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of The Whipping Boy?

    All of it was so good, it is hard to narrow down a specific moment.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    No. I have 14 kids (ages 1-13 years old) living with me and we had to stop and back up and move the story forward as different kids were ready to listen to the story.


    Any additional comments?

    I had read the book a few years ago so I was eager to purchase the audiobook for my struggling readers.
