Rufus M. Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Fun story. Brought back memories of being a kid. "

" Really interesting and kind of touching, if a little patronizing and old-timey. "

" This book was another great classic which has held up well. Rufus is such a likeable character and the episodic adventures were extremely fun & charming! "

" Ok. This WAS NOT Eleanor Estes' best book "

" I puzzled over Rufus's age in some of the episodes. I wish it had been specified. I can get hung up on nitpicky details. "

" This is the third Moffat book. See my review of The Moffats for why I gave it 5 stars! "

" MCL. This book about the Moffats wasn't as good as the others. "

" We love this author and her stories of the Moffat children during World War 1. "

" a quick fun read. it would be a great book for kids old enough to read chapter books. "

" Read to the girls - So funny and sweet! "

" I loved all these stories about all the cousins. I should re-read them. Is this the one where the uncle is the youngest tot? "

" A hilarious book about what the world would look like through a childs eyes. "

" The Moffat books are just so precious, I can't help but love them all. Rufus is precious. "

" I love Eleanor Estes and her stories that take place in my mother's childhood in Connecticut! "

" Warm and sweet. This book is, in addition to being a story about Rufus Moffat and his siblings, a snapshot of America at the end of WWII. I enjoyed it. I do loathe Louis Slobodkin's illustrations, though. I had to not look at them as I read. "

" Cute little story of Rufus M, the clever/naughty little boy who lived with his family in Connecticut during the war time. The stories are simple yet engaging, a kind of story I would be happy to read to my boy =) "

" I read this to the kids during the current battle with stomach flu. I really loved the Moffatt books and Eleanor Estes' kids books in general as a kid and they're still captivating today. "

" This would be good as a read-aloud book for a 6-8 year old. Each chapter stands alone. It's written by the author of Ginger Pye and is the same type of feel-good read. "

" If you're a kid growing up, there aren't enough books nowadays that enforce the principle that getting into hijinks is okay ("hijinks" differing slightly from "being an ass"); this is one of them. Also helped to instill an early love of ventriloquism within me. "

" We have really liked all the Moffat books we've read. Very old-fashioned and slow-paced and charming. "

" I love the Moffats more with each book I read. Each chapter of this one is so full of Rufus's misadventures and you can't help but smile and love him. He is so endearing--plus he reminds me of my own dear son who listens while I read these books aloud. "

" I think I was in love with Rufus as a child. "
