Fun story for kids who love puzzles and libraries

My 7 year old bookworm loved listening to this book. I enjoyed it also. Lots of fun references to all sorts of literature as the characters work to solve the puzzles to escape the library.

Libraries and Boardgames-My Two Favorite Things!!!

What did you love best about Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library?

I loved how the characters needed to learn, grow AND work together to achieve success. Don't get me wrong, I loved Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and there was something of that feel here...but here the characters weren't cookie cutter-they had flaws and strengths and they grew to see those things in themselves and each other!

This makes a great road trip book for the family

This appealed to my boys on a road trip--ages 6, 8, 10, and 12 at the time. They loved the opening scene where the brothers are doing a neighborhood scavenger hunt. This totally hooked them. The story gets better from there and the whole idea of the book is very creative--a bunch of kids competing against one another to escape in a unique way from a new library in order to win a prize. As a nice bonus, the narrator does a splendid job.

excellent family listen

this story is engaging and exciting. 3 kids and mom and dad were on the edge of our seats the whole time.

Great Book

I love the book, some of the voices for characters are odd but it doesn’t ruin the book!

Hello i's a Lemonchelo!

Amazing
Book
I really recomend this book for people who love a good fairytale it inspires us.

Fun, Engaging for parents & kids!

We love the voices! Jesse Bernstein did a phenomenal job bringing the story to life! Another wonderful story by Chris Grabenstein. My child made a reading list as the titles and authors were repeated. This story prompted questions like - “What’s Charlie & the Chocolate Factory about?” And “How do you get Around the World in 80 Days?”
It was a real page-turner; we couldn’t wait to find out what happened next and we couldn’t anticipate the ending. I wanted to find out how the story ended just like my child.

Enchanting

Our whole family listened to it-the only thing distracting our 9 year old from Disney+!

Awesome

Mr. Grabenstein is an awesome write. I love the Lemoncello series. I listened to it almost 6 times
