I love this series! Love the narrator too! A must!

Because of the narrator, Richard Thomas, I am searching for more of his narrations. Love John Grishams work!

JOHN GIRSHAM

These books are by John Grisham and really not much more needs to be said. I love Theo and his care for others. Uncle Ike is just an all around great fellow. Theo's parents are cool and is Judge. These are a quick listen, involved, books. I truly wish there were more in the series.

Great way to introduce the judicial process to young adults

The book is well rotten to pick the interest to young adults about the judicial process and how they can make a difference along with understanding write from wrong.

The reader/performance was splendid.

I loved he honor and integrity portraid of the Boone family, the friends, and families. There were plenty of emotions felt throughout the story.

Excellent light listening with young adults

What did you love best about The Activist?

This is redundant but my review is the same for all four of the series Theodore Boone books.

Great Listen

If you could sum up The Activist in three words, what would they be?

I enjoy John Grisham's writing and Richard Thomas's reading hit the story out of the ballpark.

What other book might you compare The Activist to and why?

Adam Canfield of the Slash

Which character – as performed by Richard Thomas – was your favorite?

Theo and Ike

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listened to this in the car and when I got to my destination, I did not want to get out of the car. I wanted to listen to the story until the end.

Theodore Boone series good

Like this installment of the Theodore Boone series. Richard Thomas does a good job of reading. Nice inflection. storyline is credible.

Great entertainment

I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. The narration and story were well done. I would recommend this book to children and adults!

True to Life Government and political issues

Would you consider the audio edition of The Activist to be better than the print version?

A wonderful insight for those who wish to simply sit back and allow your legislatures work on your behalf. Know what, when and how your local government works, who they are and where the money goes. Or you too may loose the "family farm"!

What did you like best about this story?

Practical arguments regarding how things are viewed by seemingly intelligent people. The issue is, and always will be that for most, your decisions are made EMOTIONALLY. And your heart will always want and see what it wants....

What about Richard Thomas’s performance did you like?

I don't think that at this juncture, I could listen to Theodore Boone read by ANYONE ELSE... WONDERFUL as always!

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

When the judge informed the litigants of the consequences and severity of perjury on the stand.

Any additional comments?

A must read, hear and hopefully see....

the brave boy and his do6

another fun book to listen to and Richard Thomas did a great job. I believe John Grisham was this little boy at one time
