Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. I enjoyed listening to this book as I was on a trip. Not sure I would have chosen it on my own, but I did enjoy the chance to listen to it. It is one that would have probably been better for me as a book. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. A quick read, On the Road to Mr. Mineo's is the story of the search for a one-legged pigeon by neighborhood kids and townspeople alike. Aimed at younger readers, the book does a great job of capturing what it is like to be a kid, dealing with both bullies and best friends. As an adult reader, however, it didn't quite catch my fancy. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. This is a story about a small Southern town in the midst of a lazy summer. It stars a one-legged pigeon, a girl named Stella and all the other characters who orbit around her. I would say its ideal format would be a printed book with illustrations, perfect for a youngster who is just beginning to read chapter books. It would not be painful as an adult to listen to this with a child. The narrator does an excellent job with her different voices and the timing. The story is cute, the characters well drawn and the setting is good. I could almost taste the dust in the streets and smell the rotten peaches in the abandoned orchard.I became tired of the almost staccato pacing of the sentences. I wasn't sure whether I was being talked down to or whether that was simply the author's style. The pigeon chase became annoying to me. Some of these criticisms could be the result of my mood and the lack of a child to enjoy it with. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. A fun, enjoyable book. I was given the audio version and it was the perfect audio book for a road trip. I think kids of all ages will enjoy this.geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

A group of kids in Meadville, South Carolina all want the pigeon. Meanwhile, Mr. Mineo just wants the pigeon back. But Sherman has his own plans and only a little white dog seems to know what they are.
The book is short, poetic, and thoroughly delightful. The reader of the audio does a perfect job of bringing the characters to life.
I recommend this book to anyone looking for an uplifting children's book where the dog doesn't die. I think it will also appeal to fans of the Everything on a Waffle books. ( )
