When 12-year-old Jason discovers the lottery ticket his uncle gave him is an instant winner—he nets several thousand dollars—his life starts to get crazy. This short novella makes for a quick listen. Narrator Charlie Thurston does an excellent job of keeping the voices fresh and interesting. His tone reflects a sense of humor, delight in adventure, and the perfect amount of heart, keeping listeners engaged even when the plot begins to lag. A fun-filled adventure for young listeners.
