Wisconsin had a big party in 1998. It was a roll-out-the-barrel, slice-the-cheese, strike-up-the-polka-band wing-ding that promised to roust every last badger out of state burrows and into the streets to dance with guests.

This little piece goes on to point out various bits about Wisconsin – the good and the questionable. I’m putting Bucky the Badger mascot in the Questionable category even as I find him charming. The author includes a little about his heritage and time on a dairy farm, which was a nice touch.
I wasn’t aware that there had once been cave paintings in Wisconsin (and perhaps there still are). The ones mentioned in this tale were sadly ruined. The quaint rambling takes us into the water ways, up to the glacier, down to the Cheesehead sports, and then back out to the water ways again. It’s a fun stroll through Wisconsin even if you’ve never been.
I received a free copy of this book.
Narration: Jon Reeder was a great pick for this book. He sounded engaged and interested the entire time. He imbued the story with emotion (wonder, sadness, frustration, humor, etc.) as needed. In short, he was a pleasure to listen to.

Jon Reeder's performance was excellent. I'd say he was half the fun of listening. His voice was perfect for the story. An overall awesome feel good story. Recommended.

Would you consider the audio edition of Wisconsin to be better than the print version?
I actually read along in the Kindle edition as I listened to this Audible Edition. Both are capable of entertaining. A light hearted homage to Wisconsin.What other book might you compare Wisconsin to and why?
I mentioned before that Bill Stokes' work compares favorably with work by ... Bill Stokes! Folksy, Homey, observations about his lifelong home state, Wisconsin.What does Jon Reeder bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I like Jon Reeder! As a... ummm... senior citizen, I appreciate that he reads in an understandable voice, with a good, clear storytelling cadence. You can also hear his underlying amusement with the material. To me, its important that a voice talent enjoys the material he is presenting.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This is eleven minutes long ! I may be old but I'm capable of sticking with it for eleven minutes! roflmao! Yes I did listen to it in one sitting. I actually stood up for at least two minutes, I'll have you know.Any additional comments?
Kidding aside, I enjoy the musings of Mr. Stokes. For a light brief listen, I suggest "Wisconsin" to listeners of any age. Whether a resident, or thinking of visiting, or just interested in knowing more of our 30th state, Wisconsin.A review copy was gifted to me at no charge. In return, I am happy to provide an honest review. Also at no charge.
Bucky isn't Stinky but Brett IS Retired!
