Well Done!!

Theo is a great character, and after 5 episodes, I can't imagine anyone else narrating this series. It's an awesome way to introduce a young audience to courtroom drama.

Any additional comments?

Great series, written for kids, but enjoyable for a middle 40's pastor/dad. I have a couple of Theo Boone's in my house - brilliant minds who like doing the right things - and these books make me smile.

Law has application for all. Young and old...__:

Theo is far from being average, but his youth is tempered from being the son of loving parents who love the laws that govern our free contry. Wisdom of one so young is rare and due honor.

Great light read!

Fun read for Theodore Boone fans. As usual Theodore finds adventure in his typical, kid lawyer, over-the-top way!

Great book for the whole family very educational

It's a great story and a great character. Also a great way to learn about the law profession in the trial process. Also a little history to go with it. Highly recommend for the whole family. Our kids ages seven through 14 all loved it.

Great Story

Great story, but the narrator should have slowed down. Much of it sounded like a continuous run-on sentence.

Good presentation

Pretty good book. Reader did a great job. Worth listening to. I would highly recommend the previous Theodore Boone book prior to listening to this one, though I like this story better.

Brilliant Story

The Accused had been my favorite Theodore Boo e book until The Fugitive! This book was totally enthralling- I use Audible and more than once I had to rewind as not to miss a word!!! I loved every word!

Young readers

This is a great story, very in engaging and interesting for reader that enjoy law.

Another stellar book

Grisham has done it again with a great story geared for youth and yet interesting enough to capture the attention of his adult readers.

Discussing real life situations and legal matters in a way young people would understand, the story is also highly captivating and entertaining.

Recommended for the legal beagle in every family, perfect for vacation or travel reading!
