Aunt Jane's Hero


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4.5 stars; 39 reviews)

Aunt Jane is a good and loving woman, important to everyone except herself, always willing to give good advice. Her "hero", Horace, is far different: in the beginning of the story, he is a good but a little unthoughtful youth. But at the end, his unthoughtfulness is replaced by his love to God. Beside Aunt Jane and her "hero", there is quite a large cast of other unforgettable characters who show us a lot of important things. (Summary by Stav Nisser.) (5 hr 50 min)

Reviews

Delightful Story of First Love


(4 stars)

In her characteristic way, Elizabeth Prentiss winds universal truths and treasures into a sweet story of boy meets girl. While it feels a tad preachy every now and again, the kernels of wisdom presented are worth the price. The readers did a fine job, though the final reader felt a bit rushed at times. Highly recommend for teens looking for a dear Aunt Jane to lend an ear and a word fully spoken as comes to courtship and marriage.

A good story & excellent readers


(5 stars)

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. Some thought provoking passages, but not dull & dry. All 3 of the readers did an excellent job!

Lovely book and lovely reading
