Kept My Daughter and I Engaged Till The End

What made the experience of listening to Wasted Wood the most enjoyable?

My daughter and I listened to this book on the way to a hockey tournament. We listened to it all in one shot. We were engaged throughout the entire story, often hanging on the edge of our seats to hear what would come next.

We both loved the book. Brock Eastman has a gift at writing action packed stories without being repetitive.

Great Story!

My favorite character was Hudson, because I think generally all kids can relate to him.

Wasted Wood

The story was well written and had a really good moral. It was an adventure story that, though not very long, made a very good point.
