When you first walk into a room in a house, or into a stable, they have a way of telling you they know you're there. It ain't nothing particular noticeable, but the air inside of â��em changes like it's saying, "I'm watching you". But I'd got into this stable so quiet and sneakish that nothing knowed I'd cracked open the door, held my breath, and took a step inside.Then I heard a humming sound so near that my blanged legs and breathing frozed up all over again. Whatever it was that was making that sound was so close that even my eyeballs locked where they were at. Then I started sliding my eyes off to the left. Someone had leaned some dark bundles or sacks up â��gainst the left hand side of the stable. There were five of â��em. The noise commenced again, sounding like someone fishing â��round trying to figure which song they were â��bout to hum.It was one of the bundles! It had four live, moving arms! I couldn't believe I'd come all they way to the United States of America to see my first haint!©2007 Christopher Paul Curtis (P)2008 Random House, Inc. Literatura y Ficción Inspirador Sincero

The story itself is phenomenal and the narration is perfect. My only issue is with how the chapters are labeled vs. the actual chapters. For example, the audio that is labeled as Chapter 1 encompasses from Chapter 1 in the book to the middle of Chapter 3. The audio that is labeled Chapter 2 encompasses from the middle of Chapter 3 in the book to the end of Chapter 6. I use audiobooks for my students with disabilities who need audio support. This labeling makes it very difficult for them.

Great book/narration; terrible chapter labeling

Fantastic story and perfect narration! A realistic and heart warming tribute to Buxton residents. The narrator’s performance was absolutely amazing!

Amazing

The message of this story is very good and it is very well written. I love the language or voice that this book brings. Like a few of the recent Newberry Award Winners, there are a few themes that are not appropriate for younger audiences. There is talk about people breeding, and graphic descriptions of slaves naked in chains. I think that it is important that people come to understand the inhumanity of slavery, and this book is a fantastic book to address this issue. Although this is a horrific tragedy, the book also focuses on the triumphs and joys of freedom. It is a fantastic book for middle and high school audiences.

Great Book, but not for young children

It was amazing. All I think it needs is a huge bowl of popcorn and a movie about it.

How is this so good.

I read Elijah of Buxton last year and just adored the story and history of Buxton. I was very pleased when we found the audio version - the narrator is very animated and entertaining.

Great story - great narration - a win - win

I never finished reading g the book so when I found the audible version I was extremely excited. I finished it in 2 days.

I love the story. I teared up quite often listening to the story. I feel so lucky I was not born back in those days. I often think of the slaves that were born and died as a slave. never seeing a day of freedom. Their whole life they were mistreated and that's all they knew. All of this just because of the color of their skin. it just doesn't make since.

Excellent audible book.

I loved this book

Incredible story and outstanding narration. I highly recommend this book to everyone. We listened to it as part of our homeschool history class and it was perfect for our study of the Civil War era. The depiction of slavery is painfully realistic but won't be traumatic for young listeners. I am so impressed with the way the author handled this difficult subject matter.

incredible

The story and performance are great. I would recommend this to everyone. The chapters are not accurate on the cloud player, so make sure to mark your times down on a sticky note. Other than that, pure joy!

Elijah is Honest
