The Lemonade Crime

Evan and Jessie, brother and sister, struggle to find justice for someone they "know" stole their money. When they turn to their fourth-grade class to act as judge and jury, the difference between a fair trial and a fair outcome becomes evident. By matching the style of the prose with narration that is fluid and spare, Stina Nielsen allows the heart of the story to shine. With her subtle vocal differentiation, Evan and Jessie feel like real characters rather than characterizations. There isn't a false step in the story, as written or narrated. This is a sequel that stands alone, on its own two feet, without wobbling a bit. A.M.P. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
