THE LOSERS CLUB

Narrator Chris Gebauer transforms himself into Alec, an avid reader who is trying to navigate the uneasy waters of school, friends, and other aspects of being a kid. Beginning the school year as a loner, Alec establishes the "Losers Club" in order to find some solace while enjoying reading. As others show interest in his club, he steps out of his comfort zone and starts to form friendships and see the world in a new light. Gebauer creates a different voice for each of Alec's classmates, and the production includes a list of all the book titles Alec mentions, which adds a fun element. A classic story of school will appeal to a host of eager listeners. M.D. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2017]
