Excellent Series, and Wonderful Narrator!
I thoroughly enjoyed all four audiobooks in this series, this being the first. We cannot (yet!) locate books by series as far as I know - I can say that all four (and the sequence is Summer - Autumn - Winter - Spring) are excellent. Well written, and extremely well read, with voices capturing and conveying the unique personalities of the various kind and memorable characters. I will watch for other Audible offerings by both this author and narrator! Enjoy!!

A family favorite!
My kids, ages 10, 9, and 8, loved it and didn't want to stop listening! I love the deep Christian truths being discovered my 9 year old Josh as he lives an exciting life on a farm, and works through his childhood troubles. (like not wanting his aunt to get married, and not being sure he will like his great grandpa moving in with them.) It is set out west in the early 1900's maybe?

Nice droll humor and appealing characters
Listened to it all in one day, laughing out loud at some of the thoughts of the protagonist.

Hard to stay interested
Clean story and well-written, but rather boring and hard to keep my interest. however, I gave it a fairly High rating because it is a strong Christian moral story
