About this listen

 An excerpt from the book: "Sure, it's unusual to have an 18-year-old mother when you're 12. But when you're an orphan and she's your aunt and the only mother you've ever had well, as I explained, it had worked out real well.

That's why I got so riled up when I heard Grandpa and Uncle Charlie talkin' about findin' a fella for Auntie Lou!

You see, somethin' had to be done! I couldn't just sit back and watch our special family get broken up. But with Grandpa and Uncle Charlie workin' so hard to get Auntie Lou married off, I really had my job cut out for me.

Then, when that poor preacher came along, it really got complicated.

And maybe you'll find out what I found out about the best kind of family, I mean."

great book!

I really loved this store, and only used audible when I wanted to "keep reading", hands free. I did not like the way this book was broken up for the audio files. it said there were 6 chapters, and so 28 chapters were divided into six audio files, which made it difficult to find my place, as I was reading primarily and really only listened to 4-5 chapters of the whole book on here.

overall very good. a great, wholesome book for families who like to listen/read together with their children.
