The author and publisher should be ashamed of this Audible version. Amateurish, poor enunciation, and more like a podcast than an actual book.

Overrated and unbelievable

The idea of a child surviving and overcoming the harsh realities of life readily caught my attention but some major elements of this story were just too unbelievable/unrealistic. It was like reading the movie version of a book that was notably predictable with endings/conclusions that ultimately, provide closure and makes the audience 'feel good'; many of my friends absolutely loved it and I admit, it started out great. Believing a six year old (who had less than nothing, even when both parents were present) can continue to live on her own in a dilapidated shack in a waterlogged marsh that never needs repair (same with the boat) and only having intermittent help from a couple of townsfolk is a bit too much.
