Miss Genevieve's Finishing School

By: Wendy Nikel

Narrated by: Je Nie Fleming

Jada Jackson is the most average of teenage girls. She, like the other girls, has never considered any option other than to attend the local, completely average high school. When the mysterious Miss Genevieve informs Jada that she has been invited to enroll in a seemingly prestigious, yet curious, school for young ladies, Jada hardly hesitates to accept the offer. But on her very first day, Jada learns that Miss Genevieve's promises are more fraught than they initially seemed.

Any additional comments?

This delightful cautionary tale is a wonderful short story ideal for listeners of any age. Obviously slanted toward young girls whose self-images are constantly blasted by media images and peer pressure, this should be heard by everyone from fifth grade up (and younger for the precocious).
