Reseñas de la Crítica

“I was delightfully surprised at how much fun this book was to read. The journey of Littlethumb as a prodigious child artist was endearing, complex, and dramatic in big ways as the story evolves into conflict and adulthood. Great storylines, character development and a quirky storytelling voice make this a very enjoyable book unlike any other... I highly recommend it.” -Michael M. McGuire, Award Winning Film/TV Writer, Director & Producer: Aquarians, Color Out of Space, Resurrection, Electrick Children, Paul T. Goldman

“The title of this book fascinated me. What (or who) in the world is a “littlethumb” and what could be important about its sneeze? Finally, I broke down and bought the book and I was not disappointed. It’s the most unapologetic omniscient narrator POV that I’ve ever encountered...a very quirky book, funny and satiric. Recommended. Read and enjoy, and maybe weep.” -Lorinda J. Taylor, Author: The Termite Queen, The Man Who Found Birds among the Stars

A very enjoyable read.

The story is compelling and filled with action, romance, tragedy, and lots of humor. The characters are well fleshed out and very real. This is one of the best books I've read in a long while. I highly recommend it, if for no other reason than for the monkeys. They are a hoot.

Loved it

Amazing book. Loved the storyline and the narrator and author has done a really good job with this book. Definitely would listen to it again and again. Overall excellent book to listen to. 5 stars from me.

Such a great read.

I really enjoyed this novel. It’s quirky, fantastic, romantic, and tragic. You never know where it will take you. I especially love the characters; some you love and some you hate and some you’re just torn between. Littlethumb Brooks is such a unique protagonist. 10 out of 10. Will read again. Can’t wait for the sequel.

Magical, Poignant, Fun

Littlethumb Brooks is the extraordinary tale of a young creative prodigy whose adventures begin with a simple thumbprint signature. From an early age, Littlethumb’s life is filled with wonder until a sudden eye open sneeze mysteriously freezes time, beginning his magical journey —traveling the world, living through thrilling and sometimes comically chaotic moments reminiscent of Home Alone. Years later, with the shadow of tragedy looming once more, Littlethumb must confront his past, reclaim his creativity, and awaken the magic within before it’s too late. A whimsical yet poignant story of imagination, loss, and rediscovery.

The author, Truant D. Memphis, skillfully blends flawed characters and sharp satire with touches of American pop culture to bring Littlethumb to life. Both main and supporting characters are well developed, though there was missed potential in further exploring Tommy Toxic—whose impact on Littlethumb was deeper than most, despite his limited role. The dialogue and narration are vivid and authentic, keeping the story moving at a steady, engaging pace. Plot twists are original and surprising, yet they unfold naturally within the story’s rhythm.

The narrator, Jacob A Castellon, delivered a compelling performance, speaking clearly with excellent enunciation that made the story easy to follow. Their vivid tones and expressive delivery brought the tale to life, immersing listeners in each scene. With a smooth, well-timed cadence, the narrator breathed life into the characters and their situations, adding emotional depth and nuance that enhanced the overall storytelling experience.

An engaging and unique tale that spans a wide range of emotions and experiences.
