Blue Rock Rescue

De: M.R. Street

Narrado por: Dallas Britt

In the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, 13-year-old Andy Broome meets a new friend, Trudy Mitchell. Through a fun-filled summer of fishing, playing, and visiting two Belgian draft horses, Andy tries not to let Trudy learn his guilty secret about his mother’s death - and the reason he won’t go swimming at Blue Rock. As a summer storm engorges the river, Andy must rely on the skills - and the courage - he learned from his mother if he is to save the life of his friend.

A delightful romp of a story!

M.R. Street has written a beautiful young adult story that is filled with humor, drama, and friendship among a circle of teens in a small town in North Carolina. Dallas Britt's narration delivered in a youthful, energetic tone complete with southern accent,
is perfect for the first-person voice of the young protagonist. I highly recommend this book for young adults and above.

A great read

I enjoyed this story. Full of friendship, trust and family values. The author did a great job with the characters. I also thought the narrator did a good job with the different voices. Andy & Trudy became good friends but Andy couldn't tell her, not yet. As the story goes on, their actions and decisions made for an interesting story. I enjoyed the way that the narrator brought the story to life.

lessons learned

This is geared more towards young adult/preteens imo. I was ambivalent about Trudy, but she did act like a child would so I can accept that, because she was a child. Andy acted very mature and responsible for the most part being that he was only 13. Kudos kid. Some life lessons imparted. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.
