About this audiobook
The fifth adventure in the enormously popular Dory Fantasmagory series takes on the tried-and-true theme of childhood friendships, and turns it on its head, Dory-style. When her big sister Violet has friend trouble at school, Dory tries to come to her rescue. But, of course, Dory's active imagination takes over, and Dory's suddenly sure that Violet's problem involves pirates--and Violet's lost friendship bracelet is hidden treasure. When Dory sets sail to recover the treasure, she has to navigate rocky waters without her imaginary friend Mary, who has gone off on vacation with an exciting new friend of her own. There's a ton of treasure in Dory's fifth adventure as Dory mixes in pirates, pals (real and make-believe), and her own imagination into one wild and wet free-for-all.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5it was so funny a great audiobook for the whole familiy
to cuddle up laugh and listen - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Whoa, this is veryvery child point of view -- and the child is hugely imaginative and full of steam of consciousness adventures. Pretty cool, and I like the illustrations. Not the intended audience, though, so it's not quite my jam.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Adorably funny book great for younger readers or families to read together.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Dory is the baby of the family and of course not welcome to play with her older sister and brother. But no matter, she has a wildly funny imagination that keeps her happily occupied in her own little world. Dory pretends to be a dog, plots to get rid of the evil Mrs. Gobble Gracker, consults with her fairy godmother Nuggy, and her imaginary friend is a monster named Mary who gets into everything. A fun read-aloud for young children and a funny read for newly fluent readers.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This story celebrates kids with wild imaginations! Even though Rascal exasperates adults and her siblings with her antics , she will definitely remind you of what it was like to be a kid and there was no limit to what you could imagine.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This audiobook version of the book was fantabulous! Suzy Jackson infused life and gaity into Dory and her lively imagination and it was a delight to listen to the story. As other reviewers have noted, this is for younger readers but I was enchanted with the character and will look for other books
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This books is part of a new chapter book series I recently discovered. I plan on adding some selections from the series into my mid-year read aloud time with my kindies. As a mentor text, I'd love to use this book to inspire children to keep an inquiry journal or a "wonder box" as Debbie Miller does when doing a nonfiction questioning lessons with her first graders. Speech bubbles are interwoven cleverly throughout this chapter book. Primary children love to use speech bubbles and this book can inspire students to use some new techniques. Dory is the youngest child in her family and as a result, she suffers some of the torture the youngest often endures (take it form me!). She nags her older siblings, questions them constantly "Why do we have armpits?How do they make plastic?" Throughout this story, there are more and more reasons to love this charismatic little girl! As the author says, "She is a little rascal with a big imagination!"
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I was please to receive an audiobook edition of Dory Fantasmagory through the LibraryThing Early Reviewers Program. This audiobook was excellent with Suzy Jackson's wonderful narration help bring this hilarious story to life. Dory the youngest in the family is often left out by her older brother and sister who think she is too much of a baby to play with them. Since she has no one to play with Dory, known as Rascal to her family. comes up with imaginary friends and involves them in adventurous situations. I loved how imaginative Dory was and how she and her siblings were shown actually involved in active play rather than interacting with electronics and not each other. This audiobook would be a perfect addition to a family trip and will provide a great story that parents and children can discuss afterwards. 4.5 big stars!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great pacing, fun kid-like voice. Fun to listen for kids who would like to read along or just relax and listen.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is one of the best early chapter books to come out in the last couple of years. It is full of imagination, spunk and mayhem. The audio production loses something, obviously, without Hanlon's illustrations, but narrator Suzy Jackson adds enough spark to make it definitely worth a listen.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Dory, the youngest in her family, is a girl with a very active imagination, and she spends the summer playing with her imaginary friend, pretending to be a dog, battling monsters, and generally driving her family nuts.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I don't know who this book is for. Perhaps a read aloud for age 5-7.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Well...an interesting voice...the explosion of a kid's imagination...but kind of as annoying as the actual kid would be. I think I'm probably a lot like the grouchy sister, so I'm not appreciating Dory as much as I should.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Six-year-old Dory gets no respect from older siblings Luke and Violet, but that's all right by her, because she has a rich imagination, populated with friends and villains who seem just as real to her as the people in her family. She has fabulous adventures with these imaginary creatures, but when she sacrifices her sister's favorite doll to one of them, will she find that she has finally gone too far?This is a quirky little story that may appeal to readers familiar with other trouble-making youngsters who populate the world of early chapter books. I found Dory a little irritating, myself . . . but then again, I am an older sibling!
