This is a great book and a great reading of it. I heard in an interview Elizabeth Klett said it was one of her favorites she'd done and I see why. I highly recommend this one!

Unusual Tale


(5 stars)

I don’t think I’ve ever heard a story quite like this one before. It is truly unique. Basically just a slice of life and how an unusual occurrence affects the lives of a small number of people. Elizabeth does a great job as always with the narration. I recommend giving it a listen.
