However, it was not enjoyed by my proficient and advanced level readers. Yes, it was great for my unsatisfactory and limited knowledge level readers. Was The Juvie Three worth the listening time? Welch could have played up the character emotion more. The book has a constant level of anticipation and excitement. What didn’t you like about Christopher Evan Welch’s performance? Both deal with boys coming of age, labeled as juvenile delinquents, making tough decisions that can be life changing, and ever changing relationships that many adolescents go through. I would compare this book to The Outsiders by S.E. What other book might you compare The Juvie Three to and why? Although I enjoy an audio book, The Juvie Three audio was a bit dry and didn't play up the characters personalities to make the story interesting. I bought this audio to accompany the novel for my 8th grade Language Arts classes. 'Laugh-out-loud funny, honest, hot and sweet.Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent?
