String in the Harp Audiobook (Unabridged)

" i thought this book was confusing at most parts, but i enjoyed it. "

" I didn't think I'd like this book, but I really did and made me interested in learing more about life in Wales. I recommend this. It won a Newberry in the 50s. "

" This is an enjoyable Young Adult book about growing up. I also gained great insight into the climate, landscape and history of Wales. "

" I wish that the mythological elements had been a little more pervasive, but I thoroughly enjoyed the Welsh setting! Definitely gave me a feel for Wales. "

" I decided this was too mystical for the private children's library that I run. "

" When I want to win a Newberry medal (I'd settle for an Honor), I will write about Welsh mythology. Seriously, those voters LOVE Welsh myths. My problem with this one is that it suffered in comparison to Lloyd Alexander and Susan Cooper (and even Tolkian). "

" This book might be my favorite book at the moment. It is great. That's all I will say for now, because I can't do it justice. "

" Just reread this book and enjoyed it thoroughly! I found the family story and the relationship of Peter and his two siblings Jen and Becky just as interesting as the magic in the Taliesen part of the story. "

" This was one of my favorite books from childhood and I re-read it often. Time travel was always one of my favorite themes as a child. "

" This is one of my favorites. I love how the author combines real life issues with fantasy. A definite must read. After you read it, you'll know why the author is a newberry award winner. "

" Not quite as magical as it was when I read it as a child. "

" A great book for Celtic history fans. "

" I didn't love this book, but I didn't hate it either. I think it was just ok. People who like realistic fiction and historical stuff should read this. "

" Great story to spark the imagination. "

" It has some stuff that makes me think hard. It's very good and suspensful "

" Interesting twist on a coming-of-age novel combined with an excursion into Welsh history and lore. Ethics and relationships are central to the development and resolution of the plot. "

" I read this a long time ago and all I remember is that I really liked it. "

" It took me a while to read this one. It's not fast-paced, and all the Welsh history, geography, mythology was new to me, so I took my time reading it (and had to go back from time to time to remember details). I felt like I learned a lot and enjoyed the twist at the end. "

" I didn't really understand this book, but then again I was really young when we listened to it on tape. All I know is that it was very confusing. "

" I can't really explain why I come back to this book every couple of years, but I do... "

" kids' book a friend recommended "

" This book was delightful from beginning to end. It had 'a very strong sense of place', as a friend who recommended to me noted. It made me want to go to Wales and find an ancient and magical artifact; or more practically, to learn more about Welsh history :-) "

" Now just wasn't the right time for me to read this. I bought it when I was twelve and thought I would enjoy it eleven years later. I didn't. Guess my tastes haven't really changed. "

" Magic and mythology, set in Wales. "

" i thought this book was confusing at most parts, but i enjoyed it. "

" I read this a very long time ago, but I remember it being unbearably slow in the beginning and the suspense that did come up wasn't even that suspenseful. It was hard to force myself to keep reading this book and actually finish it. "

" Just reread this book and enjoyed it thoroughly! I found the family story and the relationship of Peter and his two siblings Jen and Becky just as interesting as the magic in the Taliesen part of the story. "

" I read this book as a kid. How wonderful to find it again as an adult! "

" A great book for Celtic history fans. "

" This book has such a fabulous sense of place, you could totally find your way around Borth, Wales, after reading it. In fact, you probably *will* want to find your way around it! "
