On his 11th birthday, Jackson is nervous about moving up to middle school where he knows he'll be bullied by older kids, so he makes his wish, "I don't want to grow up!" When his 12th birthday rolls around, he discovers his wish came true: he's still 11, and he's starting fifth grade (again). At first, this is the perfect life. Jackson is the smartest kid in his class, the best on his baseball team, and the star of the school band. But after a few years of being eleven, he realizes his life is passing him by.

Zero is just one of 20,000 people aboard a spaceship bound for a new planet set to be colonized. The journey is over a century long but luckily, everyone is in stasis, so they’ll be safe and sound asleep during the trip.

In fact Ben is so awkward, he can barely get to school and back without a mishap.

If she gets in, she will learn to spin music into powerful magic - but her Gran has one last-ditch plan to persuade her out of it: sports camp. A week of softball, sprinting, and sweaty socks isn't exactly Amelia’s idea of a good time - in fact, she's deeply, appallingly unathletic. By the end of day one, she’s puked her guts out in track, gotten a black eye in no-contact flag football, and firmly established herself as the Least Valuable Player at camp.

I Was Entertained
I chose this title as part of the Audible Original program. I debated getting it as I’m not a child. Okay, some who know me might argue that so, I’m way above the age of being considered a child. I was kept entertained the entire time. I can’t wait to share this with my grandchildren. I know they are going to love it! The actors did a great job bringing this book to life. This would be a wonderful title for a road trip.

Super Cute Modern Buttercream Gang With Humor
I listen before I let my sons. This story evokes the good old days... Makes you think of Opie from Andy Griffith having an adventure. A gang ot talented kids, led by smooth talking and quick thinking Riley Mack, thwarts bullies, stops bungling bank robbers, and brings down a puppy mill. Cute and funny story that emphasizes doing what's "right." Bending rules and telling "white" lies are used to achieve ends. Respect for military service is extended. The only drawback is that the main "villan" is the town Sheriff. He's portrayed much like Boss Hogg from the Dukes of Hazzard. My brother is a police officer and as a rule I disallow stories and games that disrespect officers of the law. However, this entire story is so cartoonish and light-hearted that I will probably allow it. The performance is done with a multi-member cast, music, and sound effects, making it much more like radio theater than the reading of a book. Overall very enjoyable!

Great worth every penny… wait do you pay for it?
Amazing story, I have listened to it every night to go to sleep.
It’s so good that each character is voiced by a different actor because in my opinion… it get ps very boring

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 573
Coke and Pepsi McDonald didn’t want to jump off a cliff. They didn't want to get hit by poisoned darts from blowguns either. And they certainly don't want to get locked in their burning school, thrown into a pit at the top of a sand dune, or drowned in a vat of liquefied Spam. But what are you supposed to do when you’re being chased across the country by your insane health teacher and two guys in bowler hats who are trying to kill you? One thing's for sure, it'll be a snap for Coke and Pep to write their essays on "How I Spent My Summer Vacation."
