Brighty of the Grand Canyon Audiobook

" I read this book until my copy actually fell apart. My grandparents bought it for me from a gift shop at the Grand Canyon when we went there when I was a kid. As soon as I finished it I would flip back to the first page and start reading all over again. "

" I loved this book as a kid, the mystery and the joyful little burro. I'd like to read it again. "

" When we lived in Arizona, we had the chance to visit the Grand Canyon a few times. This story about a little donkey who lives in the Grand Canyon is one of my favorites. Great little mystery for kids and you can't help but fall in love with Brighty as he has his adventures. "

" Sweet little book about a little burro that lived in the Grand Canyon. Still as fun as when I first read it ages ago, and a nice little trip down memory lane! "

" Another childhood favorite that my mom read aloud to my sister and me. Now, I have read (and re-read) it to my own daughters. This is just the sweetest story about a little burro who lives in the Canyon and of his adventures. "

" I read this book a million years ago in elementary school, and then picked it up again at the used book store and read it again. It's a fun little story that makes me want to explore more of the canyon. "

" Love this book as a pre teen. Read it several times. Such a sweet story. "

" one of my favorites of marguerite henry-slightly different than the others because it wasn't quite as focused on the equine figure. however, still very much a horse book (hence the reason I loved it as a kid). "

" A great story of a donkey. Another novel for horse crazy children. "

" I loved this book, both when my Dad read it to us kids, and when I read it on my own. A great turn-of-the-century tale of a burro living in the Grand Canyon. He's witness to murder and thievery, great change, and even the arrival of a president. Wonderfully written tale, with great illustrations. "

" This book is pretty good right now. I like how it moves pretty fast and there is always something that is a suprise that is happpening. Wonderful. "

" Adorable book about Brighty the trusty burro. Such a sweet story! "

" a book with haribal writing "

" I remember a teacher reading this to me when I was a kid, and the book was much better in my memories than it turned out to be when I reread it to my kids. Pretty sappy and over-wrought (the villain being oh so villainous for example). The ending is also silly. Oh well, my kids enjoyed it. "

" The first time I read this book--fifth or sixth grade--I finished it in a day only. I believe I read it three times in two years. "

" This was one of my very favorite books when I was a child. I recently spotted it at a library sale and purchased it for my neighbor's little girl. Before giving it to her, I decided to reread it and it held up very well to these adult eyes! "

" read in my youth...... horses, donkeys, cowboys, the great west..... lived! breathed! dreamed about! obsessed! "

" My teacher read this in the 6th grade "

" Aw, shucks. Who wouldn't love a story about a funny, bright lovable little critter like Brighty? Marguerite Henry is surely guilty of anthropomorphism, but just as surely she knows her equines. I find the burro a little more believable than the human characters, actually. "

" Can't remember exactly when I read this, must have been the early '80's. A classic for any horse crazy girl. "

" OK, I know burros aren't horses, but it was my love of Henry's many horse books that led me to this little gem. The story of a miner's burro who wants to find the man's murderer. "

" What a sweet little book! My niece was reading this during a visit and loaned it to me when she left. "

" This is such a neat story. A good read (especially if you want an unexpected cry). "

" One of my favorite books to read when I was a kid!! Couldn't tell you how many times I've read it :) "

" This was one of my favorites. I read it many many times. "

" Good children's story--held our interest. Not as engaging as some we've read but also a different experience to have the burro be the main character. Good descriptions of characters, terrain, situations, etc. Can't complain but don't know that it's one I'd care to read again. "

" I read this book at least 6 times and it lead to some sort of 'burro' obsession, to this day don't know why I liked this book so much, nothing about it was spectacular or particularly interesting, it was just a good story about an awesome burro. "

" OK, I know burros aren't horses, but it was my love of Henry's many horse books that led me to this little gem. The story of a miner's burro who wants to find the man's murderer. "

" Children's- I think I liked this one better when I read it as a child. Marguerite Henry is still one of my favorite children's authors. "

" Brighty is a Donkey who touched the hearts of everyone at the Grand Canyon. From a miner to the President. Henry write books based on horses and in this case a donkey very well. She has a true passion for them and shows it in her writing style. "
