Scumble

De: Ingrid Law

Narrado por: David Kremenitzer

Read the New York Times bestseller and companion to Newbery Honor winner Savvy!

It's nine years after Savvy, and Mibs' cousin Ledge is on the verge of turning thirteen. More than anything, he wants the power to run like the wind. But when his birthday comes, he discovers that his savvy is actually making things fall apart. It starts out with small things, but then it gets worse. To top it all off, someone outside the family has witnessed his destruction. Now, in addition to trying to figure out how to control - or scumble - his savvy, he's got to worry about how to protect the family secrets. Over the course of one amazing summer, Ledge learns a lot about himself and his family, makes a new - and very unlikely - friend, and learns to appreciate his newfound skills.

"Readers will delight in the tall-tale tropes and Ledge's authentic physical, emotional, and artistic challenges." - Booklist, starred review

"The title stands alone in its fast-paced plot with twists and turns galore, and readers familiar with Savvy will eat it up and wish for more." - School Library Journal

Ingrid Law makes the unbelievable feel real

Where does Scumble rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Not quite the caliber of Hunger Games or Harry Potter, but enjoyable never the less. Safe for any reader. On par with books like the Redwall series or the Underland Chronicles (yet without the violence).

What did you like best about this story?

I like how important family is to the characters, and regardless of the amazing abilities they have, they seem to have to deal with the same sorts of things everyone else does.

Which scene was your favorite?

When they all came together in the end to defend the ranch.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the little girls offered the man trying to bulldoze their home all their "gold"

Any additional comments?

I think this book was about equal to its predecessor, "Savvy."

I love it

It is relatable and it is so good because you can not know what is going to happen next the first time

it was good but not as good as the first one

I liked it it was okay but I liked the first one way better thane characters from the last one still mentioned A lot though

Fun and excellently presented tale for tweens

What made the experience of listening to Scumble the most enjoyable?

My tween daughter loved it and I enjoyed it as well. Well performed and excellently written fun story that kids can relate to.

Terrific fantastic!

Would you listen to Scumble again? Why?

Great rendition of a fantastic story! The whole family loved it. Will look for more from this author

Good Story But Poor Narration

My daughter and I had already read the book and liked it, so I thought my younger son would enjoy listening to it (male protagonist, etc.). We're only about half-way through and at this point I'm just trying to grit my teeth and bear with it until the end. The narrator is completely off the mark in both capturing the tone of the characters and delivery, and I honestly can't wait for it to be over. A poor narrator can really ruin an audiobook experience, and unfortunately this book is the perfect example of that.

narrator not so good

I enjoyed reading Savvy and decided to listen to the audio version of Scumble. However, I just had to buy the print version of this book to complete it because I found the audio a bit difficult to listen to. I'm sure the narrator meant well, but the pitch and tone of his reading was not at all to my taste. It felt forced and overacted.
