[Chad · Rating 2 out of 5]

I thought that this story was ok. I listed to this Audio CD-Radio Dramatization on my commute to and from work. It started off interesting enough, but soon grew old and the end happened rather quickly without explaining how things played out.
My kids enjoyed listening to the story and enjoyed it more than I did. They would have given it a 3 or 4 star rating.
