DEAD FROGS
by Jeremiah Simmons
Narrated by: Jeremiah Simmons
Production by: Jeremiah Simmons
A Moving and Defining Moment!
A defining moment in a boy’s life is marked by a dead, squashed frog which significantly influences his life decisions. This coming-of-age story follows Jeremiah throughout his rebellious and inquisitive phases. Sheltered and raised as a Jehovah's Witness, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery in an indifferent world.
The author, Jeremiah Simmons, details his internal conflicts and emotional state of mind as he deals with and moves through life. His ordeal as homeless, his route to and in prison, and other pivotal life decisions and incidents are highlighted. We witness his journey through his experiences of failure, learning, and ultimately achieving moments of success and hope marked by defiance and emotional struggles are both deeply moving and emotional.
As the narrator, Jeremiah Simmons communicates those moments of loss, failure, contemplation, and realization effectively. His voice was clear and steady. While I normally would recommend a professional narrator, Simmons brought to the narrative a personal connection.
An emotional and moving narrative detailed through the use of allegories proves hope is achievable. This audiobook was well written and presented.
