Antonio's stories make me want to travel with him.
author: Steve McCreaThis particular CD is EXACTLY what I wish a book in middle school could be. This CD would get reluctant readers in 7th grade to dream about traveling. I can't say enough about the adventure and spirit of curiosity that flows in this fluid style of reading and writing. I look forward to sharing these audio stories with my classes of students. I'm a reading teacher, and it's time for audio books with...Antonio!
