The Search for WondLa Audiobook Series for Kids – Read by Teri Hatcher

June 2, 2014 by Jennifer Donovan

The Search for WondLa is a 3-book series by Tony DiTerlizzi (author of The Spiderwick Chronicles). A Hero for WondLa is the finale in the trilogy and has just been published and released on audiobook.

battle for Wondla

I haven’t listened to more than just a sample of the audiobooks, but I actually have had a copy of the first book on my shelf since it first came out, so I finally started reading it aloud with my 10-year-old son. We’re almost finished, and we’re hooked!

DiTerlizzi creates a magical and imaginative world that will appeal to 4th graders and up. It is sort of a combination of Star Wars (with the mythical creatures and worlds) and some of the futuristic dystopian works that are so popular with teens now. Eva Nine has lived all alone in a subterranean sanctuary, being raised by a robot Multi-Utility Task Help Robot (Muthr). When their sanctuary is attacked, Eva sets off alone, meeting all sorts of interesting lifeforms, some helpful and some dangerous.

We’re 2/3 through the first one and there many questions left unanswered, so we’ll definitely be listening to the audio versions that we were sent copies of. Audiobooks are great for family road trips or simply driving around from one activity to another, or even listening at home while doing household chores or during mealtimes.

    I listen when I work out, drive, garden, cook, shower, get ready to go to work… sometimes for a bit as I go to bed. I’m hooked!

    My husband and I listen to audio books all the time–while working, riding or traveling. Some of our grown children do as well. I would like to get the grandchildren hooked on books this way.

    I work in a library and I encourage parents and children to try out audiobooks. The children especially enjoy the Playaways that we have available for checkout. Playaways are all-in-one audiobook devices that come preloaded with audiobooks….here is a link so that you can see what they look like: http://my.playaway.com/playaway.

    We listen to audiobooks on longer road trips. My middle-schooler also likes to listen to them in his room when he’s bored. These would make great books for them to listen to during summer break when its too hot to play outside.

    Kids are all grown up, but audiobooks in the car or planes are great.
    It also helps if the child gets car-sick reading.

    I listen to audiobooks when I’m working. It provides an excellent way to lose yourself in a story while still getting work done. I also listen with my nephews while we draw. It often provides a jumping off point for imagining new things.

    We have listened to audio books in the car and at night before bed. We homeschool and I would like to work Tony’s books into our literature assignments for all 3 of my children although my daughter has already read 2 of his Wondla books. Thanks for a great giveaway. 😀

    We’ve just started listening to audiobooks as a family & they’re perfect for longer car rides or even just extended errands. May start introducing them into our nighttime reading routine soon!

    I listen to audiobooks when I am doing housework which is endless and boring. The kids do in the car and sometimes on days that are inclement.

    We’ve only listened to audiobooks a couple times, with storybooks, so this would be a neat thing to try. I can imagine the kids, and I, really getting into them!
