A Weekend with Wendell

By: Kevin Henkes

Narrated by: Melissa Leebaert

What happens when the bossiest cousin ever comes to visit for the weekend? This classic story about sharing and accepting others is a funny and realistic look at handling a friend or family member who isn't so good at sharing.

Wendell was spending the weekend at Sophie's house. Playing house, Wendell was the father, the mother, and the children; Sophie was the dog. Playing bakery, Wendell was the baker; Sophie got to be the sweet roll. But when Wendell gave her a new hairdo with shaving cream, it was the last straw, and Sophie made up a game that left Wendell speechless for a time - and won the day for friendship.

I love the illustrations that play with the audio!

We've been slowly going through and buying the audible books from the With Synchronized Images category and have found that some are mis-categorized and don't have images. This one DOES have the original illustrations and we just love it! This is a very fun and affordable book to help the littlest kids enjoy reading while grown ups are busy!

Great!

This was a great story and had the changing pictures while the story was read! So engaging!

YES -- Pictures in the Audible App!

We recently discovered these kids audible books that have the illustrations in a slideshow as they listen to the stories on their fire tablets in the app. My boys (5-11) are all LOVING discovering their favorite stories over again with Audible! These are a STEAL!

Love Kevin Henkes Mice books!!

Absolutely adorable!! These books have the cutest illustrations and always teach a valuable lesson. In this book's case, a lesson about friendship.

Great Book

Fun story and a good lesson for little kids, presented in a gentle way. We love it.
