Nonagenarian Jacob Jankowski reflects back on his wild and wondrous days with a circus. It's the Depression Era and Jacob, finding himself parentless and penniless, joins the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth. There he meets the freaks, grifters, and misfits that populate this world. Jacob introduces us to Marlena, beautiful star of the equestrian act; to August, her charismatic but twisted husband (and the circus' animal trainer); and to Rosie, a seemingly untrainable elephant.
Beautifully written, with a luminous sense of time and place, Water for Elephants tells of love in a world in which love's a luxury few can afford.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Excellent listen - a great example of an audio book that is much more than just the book. It shows how important getting the right voice actor is to making an audio book work. A captivating story told in the most excellent way.Who was your favorite character and why?
Betty the elephant.Which scene was your favorite?
Several - in particular where Betty is described as a thinking individual that acts way above that of a normal animal. How it won't listen unless using it's right name, the right language and respect.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
If I could have, yes.Any additional comments?
MORE! Please! After having heard so many great books made bad in audio, this was the first time I saw it go from good to great in the audio universe. Great job!I wish all audiobooks were like this

i think the readers did a wonderful job reading the book. the story was very unusual and good with some humor in it.What other book might you compare Water for Elephants to and why?
i have not read a book like this before.Which character – as performed by David LeDoux and John Randolph Jones – was your favorite?
old man jacob was done amazingly. still my favorite character was an animal...rosie.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
not a moment, but rosie moved me. she seemed so patient and kind and put up with a lot of abuse. i was surprised and in the beginning when the got rosie i was surprised that i felt this way, she was really important to the story.Any additional comments?
i will read this again and again. a class act read. a story that would be hard to top. i recommend this book. especially if it is your first book. you won't make a mistake getting this one!a great book i will "read" many times.
