Young listeners will be captivated from the start by narrator Bryan Kennedy's youthful voice and enthusiastic performance. Middle school is tough enough for math and music whiz Nicholas Funes, but when his father has to take an out-of-town job and his mother puts their house up for sale, the boy becomes desperate to maintain the status quo. With a little help from two quirky grandfathers, Nicholas and his friends hope to find a real-life buried treasure that will make all of their dreams come true. Kennedy's appealing level of drama helps offset some of the more challenging themes of this mystery/adventure story. Robert Petkoff delivers the few short sections told from the grandfathers' perspective, providing a nice balance to the production. C.B.L. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2015]
