About this listen
The Happy Hollisters are excited about the upcoming autumn season, with plans for pumpkin decorating, bobbing for apples, and the Shoreham Halloween parade. They decide to host a party for their friends and Farmer Johnson offers the use of his barn for the festivities in exchange for the children’s help selling pumpkins at his farm stand. The mysteries begin almost right away, when the horn on Farmer Johnson's old Model T Ford begins to blow...when no one is in the car! Pete and Pam spy a girl in a red jacket running away from the barn, but she escapes into the woods before they can ask who she is.
On the chase, they stumble on an ancient gravestone behind the barn - upon which is written a cryptic message about a hidden treasure. Then a stranger asks for the children’s help finding a weathervane in the shape of a golden witch. Could all of these mysteries be related, and will they be solved before they interfere with the children’s Halloween festivities?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 34
June 1957. One hot afternoon in the backwaters of the Deep South, a young black farmer named Tucker Caliban salts his fields, shoots his horse, burns his house, and heads north with his wife and child. His departure sets off an exodus of the state’s entire black population, throwing the established order into brilliant disarray. Told from the points of view of the white residents who remained, A Different Drummer stands, decades after its first publication in 1962, as an extraordinary and prescient triumph of satire and spirit.

June 1957. One hot afternoon in the backwaters of the Deep South, a young black farmer named Tucker Caliban salts his fields, shoots his horse, burns his house, and heads north with his wife and child. His departure sets off an exodus of the state’s entire black population, throwing the established order into brilliant disarray. Told from the points of view of the white residents who remained, A Different Drummer stands, decades after its first publication in 1962, as an extraordinary and prescient triumph of satire and spirit.

Happy Hollisters audio
My 5yo son loves the Happy Hollisters books on audio and has listened to all of them on his own. I find the narrator difficult to listen to and so haven’t listened to the story myself, but my son can’t wait for new ones to come available, and it’s a relief to know that he’s listening to good, clean stories from the 50s!
