Engaging Christian Journey

Revisado: 05-24-17

Dear Kate is an interesting historical fiction that follows the spiritual struggles of its young protagonist, Kate. The narrative is emotionally engaging from the start, a characteristic communicated wonderfully by Felisha Caldeira's narration. While this book could certainly be enjoyed by anyone, it will particularly resonate with individuals familiar with the Christian faith. In fact, I believe it can serve as a great resource for believers who are experiencing their own spiritual struggles.

Fun story; great narration!

Revisado: 10-06-15

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book to children, young teenagers, and their parents. It offers an interesting and imaginative story that engages history and identity. The book does have strong Christian overtones which could help Christian parents discuss the faith with their children.

What about Felisha Caldeira’s performance did you like?

Felisha brings life to this story with her engaging voice. She is able to capture both the lighthearted moments of exploration and the deeper moments of self examination. All of this enables listeners to become truly immersed in the narrative.

Any additional comments?

This is an easily read book that could be especially engaging for young families. While the individual stories of each primary character can seem choppy at times, the overall narrative of the book holds them together. The narration, in particular, helps bring listeners into this story.

Captivating and Inspiring!

Revisado: 04-10-15

Polishing Jade is a compelling story that engages many of the social tensions at work in 1960's America. It invites readers on the difficult but rewarding journey of a young woman faced with seemingly insurmountable circumstances. While emotionally gripping, this narrative inspires hope in the midst of despair and faith in the midst of adversity. I was pleasantly surprised to find how much I related to the situations portrayed by Tekoa Manning. This book will capture your heart, challenge your assumptions, and help you appreciate the polished jade in your own life.

Of course, none of this would be possible without the extraordinary performance of Felisha Caldeira. Her entrancing voice makes the characters of Polishing Jade come to life and her incredible acting will draw you ever deeper into this captivating story. Caldeira has not only helped me hear this book, she has helped me feel it. I am eager to listen to more of her narration in the future.
