Doris and the Ankh
Brian Holtz
Read by Brian Holtz
A fantasy adventure for all ages.
Doris, a neurotic and quirky thirteen-year-old, is thrust into an alternate reality where flowers sneeze, fairies can't be trusted and a beast that isn't quite a wolf means to kill her. Racing against time, she'll learn that anything is possible, even the unlikeliest of things... And sometimes a big imagination is all you need.

Ronnie S
this story is well written. being a huge fan of the oz books. this story brings you on a wonderful journey through grassy plains to high mountains and all the magic in-between. having an oversized ogre and a dead mouse along with a tempered teen as main characters who all learn a lesson in friendship and loyalty. also a great job by the reader who keeps you informed and interested with his dramatic reading capabilitys def is a story I would listen to again for sure thanks Ronnie s.
