From Their Site:
"In 1939, Paul Hutchens began writing a series of wholesome Christian adventure books for boys and girls. Several years ago Paul Ramseyer was inspired to dramatize the book series for radio. Now your family can own and enjoy the complete 36-book audio series... over 100 hours on 72 CDs!
These Sugar Creek Gang "Audio Adventures" are dramatically read straight from the original books. Christian families LOVE this series because the gospel message is presented in such a simple, easy-to-understand style. The whole series is, in fact, a discipleship journey... even parents who listen along witness the Holy Spirit working changes in their own hearts!
You may also like to know that Paul Hutchens' autobiography, "My Life and I", has also been put onto an Audio CD.
If you are undecided, you may wish to purchase a sample CD of the 1st story, "Swamp Robber" for $4.95, with FREE shipping.
If you are still undecided, read these wonderful testimonies from listeners. And I don't know what higher recommendation I can give than this. One of my fellow crew members mentioned that her daughter accepted Jesus as Savior, after listening to one of the Sugar Creek Gang audio CDs! Wow, all I can say is, "Wow!"
Beloved Books offers MANY other inspiring books and audio CDs. What an amazing collection!
Our Thoughts:
I like a good story. I love a good story that throws in Christian values and the Salvation story.
I listened to the Audio CD with my entire family: me, hubby, 13 yo daughter, 10 yo daughter, and 3 yo daughter.
I liked the wholesome feel of these stories: love of God, respect of parents, devotion to friends. It has so many built-in values, life lessons, and Christian Values, even mentions of accepting Jesus as Savior. I didn't have to worry that something inappropriate would pop-up in the middle of the story. I felt that my children would be grow in wisdom and deepen their values and faith, by listening to these stories.
The narrator, Paul Ramseyer, did a wonderful job of telling these stories. He puts so much emotion, enthusiasm, and feeling into the telling.
These stories are taken straight from the original storybooks. The story lines and tone of the narration reminded me of the TV show, "Leave it to Beaver". I'm thinking that if you enjoyed that show (the stories, the values, etc.), you will enjoy these stories. I loved that show, and I love these stories.
But, sadly, my daughters did not enjoy the Audio CDs. Why? I'm not sure. For one thing, they don't particularly enjoy listening to Audio CDs. They prefer to read the book, or have me read the book to them. Possibly, a story about a bunch of boys "doing boy-ish things" doesn't particularly appeal to them. Whatever the reason, they just didn't get into it.
BUT, I do like them a lot. I found it entertaining and uplifting. It was like a "breath of fresh air" compared to a lot of the "fluff" out there passing as children's literature. And many of the other crew members have children (boys and girls) who love, love, love the stories. So I encourage you to give it a try. You may wish to purchase a sample CD of the 1st story, "Swamp Robber" for $4.95, with FREE shipping. If your children listen to and enjoy these stories, I truly believe it will have a positive impact on their lives and their relationship with family, friends, and God.
I plan to continue to listen to these stories, even if I listen to them alone. :)
