Another big THANK YOU to Audiofile Magazine for this sweet review for this sweet children's book...

THE SECRET LIFE OF TUMKIT

by Billy Garrett | Read by Tara Sands

Children Ages 4-6 • 1.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2014

Tara Sands deftly conveys each interaction, whether warm and charming or frightening, with the many animals in this delightful tale. Because rabbit Tumkit is the runt of the litter, he must work hard to survive. His sweet baby voice immediately wins listeners. Sands zestfully portrays the sights, smells, and sounds as Tumkit emerges from his burrow. When he must fend for himself and nearly starves, his fear is evident. Soon Tumkit is rescued by Sands's best creation, Vella, a bossy but wise mockingbird who has a magic berry that will save him. As he thrives, Tumkit meets a croaky frog, a raspy grizzly bear, and a kind deer. The story demonstrates to young listeners that size is no indication of one's potential.

Tara Sands's versatile performance captures the powerful message and feminist themes of this compelling story. Plum is fighting her weight to become Alicia--her thin, beautiful alter ego. In order to earn the money for the plastic surgery she needs, she joins the Baptiste Plan and finds herself in the midst of a different kind of war--an undercover feminist movement. Sands's range and command of voices dramatically capture the diverse characteristics of macho misogynists, fierce feminists, bubbleheaded porn stars, and horny frat boys. Additionally, Sands's deft control of pacing and volume conveys an air of ironic nonchalance that accentuates the story's shocking actions against women as well as the satire of this entertaining story.
