Query: Must listen to the (author-narrated) audio book

Gorgeous follow up to Ellen Foster, which I loved. This sequel was worth the 20 year wait. I had the great good fortune to read this book via audiotape, which I highly recommend you do. Kaye Gibbons IS Ellen Foster, and my Yankee mentality would have had a hard time translating the words into my brain from paper. Kaye poured the words into my eager ears and brought tears to my eyes more than once with her unique style.She said in the CD interview that she plans to write 5 or 6 more Ellen sequels, every 2-3 years, and I will be sure to listen to them as long as she remains the reader.
