Though he's only 13, Theodore Boone has spent more time in the courtroom than almost anywhere else, and there's always a new adventure waiting. After being falsely accused of vandalism and theft, Theo is happy to finally be out of the hot seat, once more dispensing legal advice to friends and community members, when an exciting new case demands his urgent attention.

These books are by John Grisham and really not much more needs to be said. I love Theo and his care for others. Uncle Ike is just an all around great fellow. Theo's parents are cool and is Judge. These are a quick listen, involved, books. I truly wish there were more in the series.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Activist to be better than the print version?

A wonderful insight for those who wish to simply sit back and allow your legislatures work on your behalf. Know what, when and how your local government works, who they are and where the money goes. Or you too may loose the "family farm"!

What did you like best about this story?

Practical arguments regarding how things are viewed by seemingly intelligent people. The issue is, and always will be that for most, your decisions are made EMOTIONALLY. And your heart will always want and see what it wants....

What about Richard Thomas’s performance did you like?

I don't think that at this juncture, I could listen to Theodore Boone read by ANYONE ELSE... WONDERFUL as always!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the judge informed the litigants of the consequences and severity of perjury on the stand.

Any additional comments?

A must read, hear and hopefully see....

True to Life Government and political issues

Theo and Ike

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listened to this in the car and when I got to my destination, I did not want to get out of the car. I wanted to listen to the story until the end.

Great Listen
