HAPPY ENDINGS A Story about Suffixes

In the final moments before summer vacation, Mr. Wright's disgruntled class has one more lesson to learn--on suffixes. Leave it to author Robin Pulver to create an experience that any listener will find hard to forget. Narrator John Beach infuses this laugh-out-loud story with delight. His depiction of Mr. Wright is ever enthusiastic, and his students sound typical. The mercurial suffixes have emotions that range from prideful excitement at being the center of attention to distraught angst at being "tackled" in a lesson. Sound effects and music complement the production, which bears repeated listening while looking at the droll illustrations. Grammatical information about suffixes completes the recording.
