The "Short Synopsis" for the book is: In this inspiring and unconventional book of essays, Clint Edwards sheds light on the darker yet hilarious side of domestic life. Which sounds pretty good, and is what led to my checking this book out. In the same vein, my "Short Response" is: nope. The "Ful...
This is a brief little novella that runs a little over 2 hours on audio. It’s narrated by one of my favorite narrators, Joe Hempel, who helps the story leap off the pages.

I like his voice and cadence and he always paces the stories well...

I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in this series and that set the bar pretty high for this book. Jonathan and his crew (Kelly ...
Note: Even though this is Book 7 in the series, it works totally fine as a stand alone. Zack Berg is a gifted wonder boy and his parents Denise and Gabe are very proud of that fact. They do the best they can support their son in finding activities and a school curriculum that will challenge him. Zac...
