A WORLD WORTH SAVING

by | Read by Will Malloy, Kyle Lukoff

Children Ages 10+ • 8.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Will Malloy performs this moving fantasy audiobook with skill and care. A's parents have been dragging him to painful group conversion therapy meetings ever since he came out as trans. Ironically, it's the only place A has been able to befriend other trans kids. Then his friend Yarrow is taken away for intensive "treatment," and A discovers demons are behind the abduction--and a whole conspiracy of anti-trans attacks. Malloy infuses his voice with fear and determination as A and his friend Sal flee, and they face down saving their friend on their own. An unusual golem, other unhoused queer kids, and A's rabbi all provide support and guidance. This powerful story steeped in Jewish folklore is about coming together to fight for a better world.
