Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was blown away by the sincerity and energy Gavin Newsom brings to the narration of his own story. His conversational style makes the listener feel like they're right there with Ben, experiencing the challenges and breakthroughs firsthand. One of the standout elements is how effectively the story conveys the emotional highs and lows of Ben's journey. The pacing is well-balanced, moving quickly enough to keep young listeners engaged. If I have any critiques, it's that the production could benefit from a bit more sound design to enhance the baseball elements, and some of the transitions between scenes feel a tad abrupt. Still, these are minor quibbles in an otherwise excellent production that delivers a valuable message with clarity and heart.
