  • The Trouble with Tuck

    Theodore Taylor, Christina Moore, Recorded Books

    Audiobook (Recorded Books, Feb. 22, 2013)
    Friar Tuck, a big golden Labrador, is young Helen’s inseparable companion. She still remembers the sunny day three years ago when her father dumped the fat, wriggling puppy into her surprised arms and said, “All yours, Helen.” Since then, her dog has grown into a wonderful friend for the lanky, red-haired girl. No one knows exactly when Tuck began to go blind. By the time Helen and her parents notice the symptoms, the dog is knocking over chairs and can no longer chase squirrels. Afraid that Tuck is doomed to a life of being tied up, Helen desperately looks for a way to let her frisky dog keep the freedom he has always known. Where can she find the help Tuck needs? Award-winning author Theodore Taylor began his writing career as a cub reporter when he was 13. Working his way from a Portsmouth, Virginia newspaper to newsrooms in Washington, D.C. and New York City, he was an NBC network sportswriter by the time he was 19. His popular books for young listeners include Timothy of the Cay and The Hostage. You’ll also enjoy the exciting sequel to Tuck’s adventures in Tuck Triumphant.

    Audiobook (Listening Library, Aug. 9, 2016)
    Kate DiCamillo meets Lemony Snicket in this darkly comic novel about two sisters who learn they are each other's most important friend. Imagine two twin sisters, Arabella and Henrietta - nearly identical yet with nothing in common. They're the best of friends...until one day they aren't. Plain and quiet Henrietta has a secret plan to settle the score, and she does something outrageous, and she can't take it back. When the deed is discovered, Henrietta is quickly banished - sent to live with her eccentric great-aunt Priscilla on Chillington Lane, where black cats roam the dark rooms and tonight's menu is fish-head stew! Suddenly life with pretty, popular Arabella doesn't seem so awful. And though she's been grievously wronged, Arabella longs for her sister, too. So she hatches a plan of her own and embarks on an unexpected journey to reunite with her other half. The Trouble with Twins is an adventure and a comedy - a tale of the power of unlikely friendships, the bond between sisters...and the way a bit of mischief sometimes sets everything right.
