Seller's Description:
Very Good. Book 5 unabridged audio tapes in original plastic case. Running time: 7 hrs. Excellent condition. NOT a former library copy. From AudioFile: "Thomas Small's world changes radically when he has to go north with his family to Ohio, where his father, a history professor, has rented a house that was formerly an important station on the Underground Railroad. Lynne Thigpen's deep, resonant voice recreates this journey and the faces along the way--from the young and hopeful Thomas, to the deeply troubled Mr. Pluto--until the house of Dies Drear finally gives up its mystery. Thigpen delivers the narrative slowly and methodically but she changes with her characterizations. She sings, screams and intones all the creatures of this classic ghost thriller. This Newbery Medal and National Book Award-winner is a must for any audio collection."

So i had to read this book for Reading and i hated it! I didnt even finish the book it was so terrible! The plot may seem intresting but the Author spends way to much time on describing unnessary things. For example, When Thomas and his family went to church the author spent a whole page on finding a seat!! It was boring! I Want to burn everybook of it.
