Three Times Lucky

De: Sheila Turnage

Narrado por: Michal Friedman

A hilarious Southern debut with the kind of characters you meet once in a lifetime.

Rising sixth grader Miss Moses LoBeau lives in the small town of Tupelo Landing, NC, where everyone's business is fair game and no secret is sacred. She washed ashore in a hurricane eleven years ago, and she's been making waves ever since. Although Mo hopes someday to find her "upstream mother," she's found a home with the Colonel--a café owner with a forgotten past of his own--and Miss Lana, the fabulous café hostess. She will protect those she loves with every bit of her strong will and tough attitude. So when a lawman comes to town asking about a murder, Mo and her best friend, Dale Earnhardt Johnson III, set out to uncover the truth in hopes of saving the only family Mo has ever known.

Full of wisdom, humor, and grit, this timeless yarn will melt the heart of even the sternest Yankee.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"What do you get when you combine Because of Winn-Dixie's heart with the mystery and action of Holes?...a wickedly awesome tale of an 11-year-old girl with more spirit and gumption than folks twice her age. Mo LoBeau is destined to become a standout character in children's fiction." (Kirkus, starred review)

"Here is a writer who has never met a metaphor or simile she couldn't put to good use...But it's Mo's wry humor that makes this first novel completely memorable." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

"Turnage's lively novel features a distinctive voice and a community of idiosyncratic characters." (Booklist, starred review)

great book

This was my first and it was good. I really liked reading this mystery.

Delightful

This book has it all: superb narration, charming characters, and a plot rife with heart and humor.

Best book ever

This was the best book I have ever read and the voice,soooooooo so goood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Readers voice is Everything

Loved this narrator!!! The story itself is brilliantly written. But with audio…it’s all about the voice of the narrator. The narrators accent and different voices for all the characters was incredible. Very soothing voice and clear voice. My son and I listened to this story for 90mins/week on our way to bring him to school.

I ordered the other two books and am SO disappointed that the narration is done by someone else…we didn’t expect that……we can’t even listen to it. The rest are So bad because of narrator.

Enjoyable for the whole family!

So much fun and the kids were using the accent for weeks. The mystery kept us guessing and attentive the entire time. We will definitely check out the other books in the series because we love the characters.

AMAZING

Great Book

I have never ever heard of a better book. EVER!!!!!!❤️ I can't wait to read the second! And the voices...
WOW!

narrators the best

cute story my 5th grader is reading in school. got the audio to keep up with his homework and turned out to simply enjoy having listened to it. Narrator did a fantastic job. she gave real effort into proforming for each character which for me always makes the story.

excellent story, wonderful characters

A collection of unique and interesting characters swirl in a plot and subplots until they are all pulled together at the end.

Amazing book!

I am a 4th grade teacher and I read this book with my higher readers. They absolutely loved it and had so many good discussions. Being able to occasionally allow then to sit in a group and listen to the book was really helpful and they enjoyed it! I also really enjoyed it and will definitely be reading it with my next group of kiddos.
