Elsie Mae Has Something to Say

De: Nancy J. Cavanaugh

Narrado por: Cassandra Morris

Elsie Mae has long treasured summers with her grandparents in the Okefenokee Swamp, so she is devastated to hear that a shipping company plans to build a canal right through it. What will that mean for the people and animals that call the swamp home? So she writes a letter directly to President Franklin Roosevelt himself and sets off to enjoy what may be her last happy summer there with her new dog, Huck.

But when she arrives, she discovers a team of hog bandits who have been stealing from the swamper families. When her cousin Henry James, who dreams of one day becoming a traveling preacher like his daddy, shows up, Elsie doesn't think things could get worse. But then she devises a plan to use Henry and his Hallelujahs to help stop the thieves - and maybe make just enough noise to gain Roosevelt's attention....

Good book, good narrator

I really liked Elsie Mae and her cousin Henry. I’m glad Elsie got a dog and was able to prove that she was there, like any one of her siblings. I was really laughing at Henry’s preaching. Cassandra Morris really outdid herself this time!

Fun and suspensful

We loved spunky Elsa Mae and her colorful days in the swamp. Elsa Mae saves her beloved swamp and her cousin. A heartwarming story. #tagsgiving #sweepstakes

Such a great book!

I will say this book is long, however the narrator does an amazing job playing the part. This girl was the best we have heard yet and played all the parts in the book exceptionally. The book itself does drag on a bit but has nice details and story line.
