Reviewer's Choice List

Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch, June 2015

"A deftly crafted and original story, 'Devon: The Wild Adventures of Devon and Friends' is very highly recommended for both school and community library collections." "...alo available in an impressively produced CD audio book format."

Devon, the Wild Adventures of Devon and Friends is a one-hour, 4-part version of the children's adventure book with the same title. It is appropriate for children 4-12. The story is written in catchy rhyming verses, clearly recited, and the characters are acted by 5 different voices. Original music background punctuates the action. The story is both entertaining and educational and may be used by non-English speakers to study English, on account of its rhyming recall qualities.

Little boy Devon visits the Zoo with his friends Qi, the wise panda bear, and his hungry, not-so-wise mutt, Picco. The Panda and Picco get in trouble and Devon enlists Hot Trot and his army of strays to save them. Violence doesn't pay, and the strays are locked up as 'mean' dogs. A new friendship, a smart first grade girl and her classmates, will help Devon liberate all his furry friends from their scary plight through smarts and artistic talent. The story extols values such friendship, learning, peaceful solutions, at the expense of violence and vanity.

Original music: Evan Pyle, Phoenix, Arizona Sound mastering and effects: Aaron Miller, Casa Grande, Arizona
