BIRDS ON THE BRAIN The Book Uncle, Book 2

Exuding warmth and enthusiasm, Sneha Mathan transports listeners to India and the world of Reeni and her friends. Reeni's teacher requires the class to do a survey on something they care about. For Reeni, it's birds, and since it's time for Bird Count India, she goes all in. Mathan's slightly quick cadence renders Reeni's impulsive energy--sometimes she forgets to listen! The local characters all have different voices. There is "Book Uncle," who finds just the right book for the right kid at just the right time, and "Istri Lady," who irons people's clothes with an iron powered by coal and is unsure how to comply with a new green-energy ordinance. Charming fun with quiet life lessons, all enhanced by Mathan's performance. A.B. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2024]
