SCOUT'S HONOR

Frankie Corzo pulls out all the stops as she narrates this clever story of the tea-drinking, pink-clad Ladybird Scouts and the inter-dimensional monsters they must destroy. High school junior Prudence Perry temporarily left the Scouts after a carnivorous grub killed her best friend. Now, she has an opportunity to permanently sever her ties with them, but first she must shepherd a new group through basic training. With impressive emotional range, Corzo brings out Prue's cautious excitement as she connects with the newbies and embraces the thrill of the hunt. Corzo captures her exhilaration, as well as her yearning for normalcy and her tender feelings for her boyfriend, Kyle. This refreshingly nuanced tale of monsters, mayhem, and coming into one's own makes an impact. S.A.H. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2023]
