Learned a lot, but the narration (from the author itself) was annoying at times, too childish. Came to find it more bearable as the book progressed, but here and there the big ol' cringe would hit you once again, usually at the end of the chapter

Fun audiobook to dip into and out of - love the questions from kids!

A fun and informative read. The author was also the narrator for my copy so you get to hear how she would have given her response in person.
