Sad but touching story

What did you like best about this story?

It helps to show that people often have hidden reasons for doing things that may seem odd.

What about Ray Greenley’s performance did you like?

Ray has a pleasant speaking voice and helped bring this story to life.

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

Yes, it is only 12 minutes so it was very easy to listen in one sitting.

Any additional comments?

This is a good story to help kids understand why other kids do things that may seem "weird" and how it can help that person to be a good friend to them anyway.
