Acerca de esta escucha

From the Newbery Award-winning author of Across Five Aprils and Up a Road Slowly comes a tale of a brave young man’s struggle to find his own strength during the Great Depression.

In 1932, Americans’ dreams were simple: a job, food to eat, a place to sleep, and shoes without holes. But for millions of people these simple needs were nothing more than dreams. When he was just 15 years old, Josh had to make his own way through a country of angry and frightened people. This is the story of his struggle to find a life for himself during those turbulent times.

Poignant

This is a touching story of 2 boys, brothers, who take off on their own during the Great Depression. The older boy decides to leave home because of a difficult relationship with his father; his younger brother chooses to join him.

The story depicts their struggles, triumphs, and the challenges of growing up in harsh circumstances. Unlike some stories about run-a-ways, there are heroes who help these boys along their journey, making this story heartwarming.

I never make reviews

I never make reviews but this book was so sweet and refreshing. A glimpse into a time where we as a country were low and how kindness and compassion can give people down on their luck just a little hope.

Wonderful Narration! Heartwarming and Emotional read!

The Narrator does a fantastic job with the differing voices and characters. Hunt tells the compelling story of brothers who leave their family home in Chicago to try to make it on their own when their father is stressed and angry about the depression and not being capable of feeding the boys properly. This is a journey story the boys face hardships, first loves, sad goodbyes, joys and perils of trying to make without their family. It is also one of redemption!

Beautiful Story!!

This book now tops my list of favorite reads!! Beautifully written and narrated. I couldn’t wait to find out what happened to this 2 young brothers. I rarely read about the Depression, however, I felt so close to my folks who would have been the age of the little brother and are no longer with me. So many experiences matched the stories they would tell me about growing up in Kansas during these trying times. I loved this book from beginning to end!!!

No Promises in the Wind

If you could sum up No Promises in the Wind in three words, what would they be?

Moving, realistic, heart-felt

What did you like best about this story?

The way Josh matured and came to realize that if you're human, you will make mistakes.

Which character – as performed by Charlie Thurston – was your favorite?

Howie - he seemed to catch Howie's personality in the little bit of time he had

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Howie's death was a shocker even though it was foreshadowed

Any additional comments?

I've done this as a novel study multiple times. This is the first time I've had the audible book. It really adds a lot to the study.

Riveting and beautiful story of survival and love

This story portrays the intense struggle for survival in two runaway boy in the Great Depression. A story of emotional distress, growth and redemption. The narration was at first a bit hard for me to warm up to but it paralleled the story perfectly. Ultimately the narration, character development and saga were amazing.
