Tennis Shoes Among the Nephites

Revised and Enhanced: 2nd Edition

Jim Hawkins has a bad attitude. What's more, he enjoys having a bad attitude about everything—especially about church.

Garth Plimpton is a fanatic. He's spent so much time studying the scriptures and thick books on archaeology that that he can't carry on a normal conversation with other kids. That's why they consider him a nerd.

Through an unusual chain of events, these two opposites become fast friends. It all began when Garth told Jim a simple truth: "They really existed once, you know."

"Who?" Jim asked.

"Nephites," Garth replied. "Every character in the Book of Mormon ate, slept, died, was buried . . ."

That statement, taken for granted before, would soon echo deeply in the two boys' minds—because they were on the trail of a chilling secret.

A great story that brings Book of Mormon characters alive.

nothing to dislike here, do yourself a favor and enjoy this book. I share this book often.

True story telling gold

The story is fun and engaging. The narrator/author is a true story teller. It is so fun and has left me in giggles several times. I am in my 70's but he has captured my childhood perfectly. Great choice for a warm summer afternoon.

Please do the rest of the books.

I grew up reading these books or having them read to me. I recently (2 years ago) read through the whole series, I’ve always enjoyed this story so please do the audio for the other books because I would definitely buy them

Please make the second one!!

Liked it all. want the rest. The book started off weirdly ro me that it was an older voice, but it made sense. python was perfect.

Update not always better

I love this story! My children listened to the series on long car trips, to fall asleep to, etc. This was in the 90's and the original recording.
In this updated version, the author/narrator starts out great but really drags in a depressing manner towards the end. Bring out the original please!

Childhood favorite

I’ve been hoping for years this series would come on Audible. I absolutely love this series!! I can’t wait for the rest of the books to be released.

The author does a wonderful job narrating, and draws you into each intense moment. The author also does a wonderful job with conveying spiritual moments, and teaching the listener about spiritual truths. This book is exactly what I needed to help refreshen and reawaken my love for the Book of Mormon stories I cherished as a child.

Loved it!

Listened to this as a youth on cassette tape on long drives. Relive the moment again with my kids. Special memories.
