SEPTEMBER 2023 - AudioFile

Omar is back with his zany, good-natured antics. A school contest for finding the best way to power a rocket takes Omar and his friends to a tech company's headquarters. Narrator Waleed Akhtar embodies all of Omar's zeal and earnestness. Akhtar sounds just like an enthusiastic youngster. His British accent sets the scene, and his tone rises and falls with the emotional highs and lows of the story. As the contest heats up, Omar's team finds their ethics tested, and its members have to be creative when they become suspicious of the high-powered engineer who is leading the competition. A delightful listening experience for the whole family with a good balance of fart jokes and heart. S.T.C. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
