Description
From the critically acclaimed author of Waiting for Normal and All Rise for the Honorable Perry T. Cook, Leslie Connor, comes a deeply poignant and beautifully crafted story about self-reliance, redemption, and hope.
This middle grade novel is an excellent choice for tween readers in grades five to six, especially during homeschooling. It’s a fun way to keep your child entertained and engaged while not in the classroom.
Mason Buttle is the biggest, sweatiest kid in his grade, and everyone knows he can barely read or write. Mason’s learning disabilities are compounded by grief. Fifteen months ago, Mason’s best friend, Benny Kilmartin, turned up dead in the Buttle family’s orchard. An investigation drags on, and Mason, honest as the day is long, can’t understand why Lieutenant Baird won’t believe the story Mason has told about that day.
Both Mason and his new friend, tiny Calvin Chumsky, are relentlessly bullied by the other boys in their neighborhood, so they create an underground club space for themselves. When Calvin goes missing, Mason finds himself in trouble again. He’s desperate to figure out what happened to Calvin, and eventually, Benny.
But will anyone believe him?

Ce que les critiques en disent
"Narrator Andrew Eiden's slow pace and soft tone perfectly depict the character of 12-year-old Mason Buttle. The rhythm in Eiden's narration captures Mason's storytelling voice... Listeners will be captivated by Mason's sincerity and gentleness." (AudioFile)

Incredible Plot! Amazing Characters! Memorable!
#thetruthastoldbymasonbuttle #leslieconnor #narratedbyandreweiden #harpercollinspublishers “Smart is knowing what you like.” These are Mason’s words written by Leslie Connor in The Truth As Told By Mason Buttle. These are my words if. “Smart is knowing what you like.” - maybe knowing what you love is genius . I loved the story and the experience of listening to Mason Buttle ‘s story. The voices and this young boy’s story will stay with me for a long time to come: The love of a dog named Mooney, long awaited redemption , and the sweetness of freshly made Apple Crisp. Incredible plot, amazing character development! Memorable Voices!!!
