THE HEADLESS CUPID

Poltergeists, seances and the supernatural arrive simultaneously with David's new stepsister, Amanda. No one is prepared for the chaos that ensues at Westerly House, particularly level-headed David, with his well developed sense of responsibility. Johnny Heller, with a voice slightly nasal and decidedly young, offers a solid performance of this Newbery Honor Book. His delivery of the dialogue involving David's young siblings is especially endearing despite the absence of voicing. Heller's slow, deliberate reading allows the humor and excitement of the text to determine the response of the listener. T.B. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB 98]
