Acerca de esta escucha

This is a very, very sad story. The characters suffer terrible tragedies. People die in unspeakable ways. Only a truly horrible person would be amused by their misfortune.

Nevertheless, it is kind of funny.

My advice is that you listen to this all by yourself. People can be judgy.

If you’re a fan of A Series of Unfortunate Events, Edward Scissorhands, or the darkest bits of Roald Dahl, the Weirdie triplets - Barnacle, Garlic, and Melancholy - will feel like old friends. After being left behind when the entire estate of Deadeye Manor is packed up for a doomed vacation cruise, the triplets have to learn how to fend for themselves. (When a staff of 200 servants has taken care of your every need, even brushing your own teeth is a mountainous task.) From their time at the Our Lady of the Perpetual Side-Eye Orphanage to their adoptive home on picture-perfect Sunshine Circle, the Weirdies have a lot to learn about the world...but, at least, they have each other.

Featured Article: Hit the Open Highway with the 40+ Best Road Trip Listens for Your Next Journey


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.

The Story Revolves Around A Quirky And Unconventional Family Of Triplets Known As "the Weirdies" And Their Newly Adopted Mother.

The Overall Themes Explore The Importance Of Accepting Differences, The Dynamics Of Family, And The Experiences Of Orphans And Adoption, Often Through An Unconventional Lens. Despite Being A Relatively Short Story, It Leaves An Impression With Its Quirky And Humorous Take On These Subjects.

Absolute awesomeness!!

Spend some time with the Weirdies. You. Will, Not. Regret. It.

It's charming and dark. It's the Addams Family meets Little Orphan Annie with a dash of Nightmare on Elm Street. Loved it!!

Dark, Hilarious And Worth A Listen

I cannot wait to play this in the car for my kids. They are 7 and 8 and sarcastic enough to appreciate this book as much as I did.

Funny, weird and excellent to listen to

Kate Winslet does an amazing job. My young children loved it! I’m sure they wish I could make all their books sound so entertaining.
