Story5 out of 5 stars 41
As if she didn't have trouble enough after her classmates discovered she had worn her brother's underwear to school (oh, the teasing, the humiliation!), Jennifer Murdley has just stumbled into Mr. Elives' Magic Shop, where she buys a toad named Bufo. Of course the odds of buying a normal toad in that shop are zero, as Jennifer finds out when Bufo starts to talk to her. As it turns out, talking is the least of the toad's strange talents.

Story5 out of 5 stars 31
When Charlie Eggleston stumbles out of Mr. Elives' Magic Shop clutching the skull of truth, he has no idea the grisly object will force him to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. That would be trouble enough for a kid who has been a chronic liar since second grade. Stir in a pair of talking rats, the fact that the skull itself is a real chatterbox, and the appalling discovery that the truth curse is infecting his entire family, and you can see why Charlie's life is getting more complicated by the minute.

Story4 out of 5 stars 8
The whole situation began when Duncan Dougal was hiding out in a dumpster (it’s a long and smelly story). Stuck in the garbage, he discovered proof that even though the kids drove off the alien named Broxholm the year before, there is still an alien-in-disguise working as one of their seventh-grade teachers! But which teacher is it? That’s the mystery Duncan must solve to protect the school - and himself.

Publisher's Summary
If Howard Morton and Freddie the Frog Killer were trying to hold you down so that Mary Lou Hutton could kiss you, you might run as fast as Jeremy Thatcher did the day he stumbled into Mr. Elives' Magic Shop.
And if you stumbled into that strange shop, you, too, might be asked to make a choice. What would you buy? The Chinese rings? The Skull of Truth? Or the dragon's egg?
And if you did buy the dragon's egg, what would you do when you found out you were supposed to hatch it?

Awesome!!
I love the read aloud. The voice makes me feel like I’m watching a movie. I just wish I could read along with the author. I think that could be something that Audible could add.

Why is Jeremy so quiet?
The story is great. Kid gets a dragon egg, hatches it, and then has to raise it while trying to have a normal 6th grader life.
The narration is also mostly good... except for the main protagonist. The volume for Jeremy is about half that of the other parts. I had to crank up my volume so the narrator was too loud just so I didn't miss Jeremy's parts.

Brilliant!
Bruce Coville spins another childhood classic packed with humor, life-lessons & adventure! He gives the tale a further dimension by reading it with his unique style- a must hear!
The only drawback is Jeremy's character is not recorded at the same volume as the rest of the cast
