Jon Scieszka grew up one of 6 brothers in Flint, Michigan and his tales of the mischief they got into are priceless. They spent summers at a lake in Michigan, tormented the nuns at his Catholic School, broke furniture, and generally got into all sorts of trouble. Many of the adventures seem to describe a bygone era. I don't know how many boys these days get into dirt fights at construction sites or can spend summer days just hanging out by the lake, but I think they would enjoy listening about them. The author narrates the audiobook, it would be a great family listen during a holiday car trip. I frequently was laughing out loud while listening.
