Ragweed Audiobook

" This book reads aloud easily. Anna loved it and would probably give it more starts. There's suspense, a big idea (stand up for yourself, work together, explore the world). The writing is full of figurative language and vocabulary worth discussing. Simple plot. Worth checking out from the library. It's the beginning of the Poppy series. Five more to go! "

" so we read this book for our book group in school for 4th grade and it was pretty good u just have to like the thing about mice cuz its like the world of mice "

" I love all of these books and it was interesting from a different perspective as a mouse. "

" This book was precious. Not too much. Just a light read about mice from different walks of life. I think children would probably love it. "

" Read this to my sisters. Definitely has an odd sense of humor twisted into it plot. Couldn't help but be amused by the city-speak and my sisters were completely won over by Ragweed. "

" Bea and I read this aloud together. She really enjoyed it. "

" Finished this book. I enjoyed Clutch's dialect. "

" I think that this book was really good and I enjoyed reading it! You definitely should read this book! "

" This is my 9 year olds rating- he loved it... "

" Awesome book for children to read, or to read to children! My kids and I love it. We read it together, taking turns. It was great! "

" This book is really funny and witty besides being adventurous. I love Clutch a mouse who, as she would say, talk totally big city style dude! A knock out killer sweet tail tale! "

" AVI is an amazing storyteller. We have used his writing as an example of descriptive details meaning "showing" not "telling". The POPPY series is a great read aloud. "

" I love, love, love books where animals scurry about talking and living their lives like people, or actually much better and wiser than most people. A great story about freedom, acceptance, and belonging. "

" ithought this book was very interesting and adventorus i think i spelled that wrong though "

" I really like Avi usually, but this book was painful. Read it out loud to my kids and they couldn't wait to move on to the next book. "

" This was a fun and interesting book. A must read for fans of the series. "

" Nice story but one character I did not like. Outdated speech "

" this book is about ragweed going to see the world. he was in the train staton and then thesse cats wherer chaseig him and he went insie a house "

" The first in the Tales of Dimwood Forest series. Good children's book - not quite as fun as other ones in the series, but still a good read. "

" i loved this book because it was very exciting and adventureouse. it had a sad ending that you would have to read the next book to find uot what happens. "

" Another excellent read by one of my favorite authors! Avi is such an amazing writer! His books are such a joy to read - total fun! I have read two of the Dimwood Forest Tales to my son now and we can't wait to start reading the next one. "

" After reading Poppy, Zach checked this one out. It is a prequel to Poppy. While he liked it, it didn't captivate him like Poppy did. "

" I love mice books xD... I was introduced to this book by my brother. "

" I liked Poppy so much more maybe I'm a bit biased! It give the reader the background information on Ragweed but as a read-aloud I don't think the battle scene between Poppy and Mr. Ocax can be topped! "

" Great prequel to "Poppy" the story of Ragweed, Poppy's late boyfriend and how he went from life in a calm meadow, to life on the city streets. And there are two very unhappy cats there waiting to destroy him. "

" We listened to this in the car. Both kids enjoyed the story. Graham even said that he wanted to be just like Ragweed ~ a little mouse with a little mouse city. With cool mouse friends. "

" The first of the Dimwood Forest series and my least favorite. Having a hard time reading it to my boys and keeping them interested. The other in this story kept us begging for more and staying up too late. "

" Vaughn ended up reading this to Emily instead of me. I'll have to ask him what he thought of it. The parts I read and overheard were not as great as Poppy, but still it was a good book. "
