Acerca de esta escucha
One stormy night, sixth-grader Jacob Doolittle finds a baby in a basket on his front porch. To Jake's surprise, his mother decides to care for the baby, hoping its mother will return. However that surprise is nothing compared to what happens to "Little Dumpling" the first time there's a full moon….
Soon Jake and his best friend, "Weird Lily" Carker, find themselves in "Always October", the secret world of monsters. Even more frightening, they discover that the safety of both the human world and Always October depends on them protecting Little Dumpling from a group of monsters out to kidnap him.
Thrills and laughs abound in this story that Publisher's Weekly dubbed a "spine-tingling rollick" and that the Bulletin of the Center for Children's books hailed for its "surprisingly charming blend of fantasy and mystery".

Historia
Monsters, aliens, ghosts, giant frogs, and a tragic angel are just some of the ingredients of this madcap adventure that is quite possibly Bruce Coville's strangest novel yet. Bruce himself appears on this recording as Gaspar Morley, head of a strange family of monsters that draw Anthony (our narrator) and his little sister Sarah into a galaxy - spanning adventure with the very souls of Earth's dead at stake.

Historia
If Howard Morton and Freddie the Frog Killer were trying to hold you down so that Mary Lou Hutton could kiss you, you might run as fast as Jeremy Thatcher did the day he stumbled into Mr. Elives' Magic Shop. And if you stumbled into that strange shop, you, too, might be asked to make a choice. What would you buy? The Chinese rings? The Skull of Truth? Or the dragon's egg?

A Little Scary
Always October is a great book for kids. But it is a little scary. The age it would be good for I think is six years old and up. Bruce Coville is a great kids book writer.

A good enough expansion of a classic story
This novel was based on Coville's classic short story "My Little Brother Is a Monster," which he published in 1993. This novel takes the basic plot of that story, but expands it considerably, adding new characters, spending more time in the world of the monsters, and updating the setting from 1993 to the 2012.
Some of the changes work better than others. Many of the new characters are appealing, especially Lily, the other narrator. It was good to see more of the Land of Always October, and I enjoyed learning more about what motivates the villainous monsters.
What I liked less was Coville's expansion of the role of Jake's family. In the original story he was a normal kid with a divorced mom trying to make ends meet who is thrust into an extraordinary situation. In the novel his family has preexisting ties to Always October going back generations. I think this weakens the atmosphere a bit, one of the most appealing aspects of the original story was the idea of a gritty modern family thrust into a world of weird fantasy. Here they were already fantastic before Little Dumpling arrives on their doorstep.
