About this audiobook
Adele Griffin
Adele Griffin (b. 1970) is a critically lauded author of children’s and young adult fiction. Born in Philadelphia, she began writing after college, when a job at a children’s publishing house introduced her to the world of young adult literature. She drew praise for her first novel, Rainy Season (1996), a heartfelt portrayal of a young American girl’s life in the Panama Canal Zone in the late 1970s. In books like Sons of Liberty (1997) and Amandine (2001), she continued to explore the sometimes harsh realities of family life, and become known for intuitive, honest, and realistic fiction. Over the past several years, Griffin has won a number of awards, including National Book Award nominations for Sons of Liberty (1997) and Where I Want to Be (2005). Her books are regularly cited on ALA Best and ALA Notable lists. A number of her novels, such as the four-book Witch Twins series, introduce an element of lighthearted fantasy. Griffin lives with her family in Brooklyn, New York.

Reviews for The Becket List

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a wonderful start to a new book for children age 7-11. This would also be wonderful for parents to read to their children. I love Becket and her twin brother and their older sister Caroline. These children move from the city to a farm and have adventures during the summer as they meet other children. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. I received a copy of this book from Algonquin for a fair and honest opinion that I gave of my own free will.
