Don't Call Me Chip

By: Neil O'Donnell

Narrated by: Paul Burt

Don't mess with Timothy.

He might seem like your average chipmunk who loves seeds, sunbathing, and enjoying a quiet life in the suburbs. But after new neighbors move in and wreak havoc, they will have to come face to face with his wit and resourcefulness.

The last straw is that the new neighbors keep calling him Chip. Convincing all manner of rodents and other small wildlife to work together, Timothy launches an assault against their invasive neighbors.

Based on a true character, this audiobook is a clean, fun listen for eight-grade reading level and over.

Undecided

This is the first book I’ve read/listened to by this author. I’m wavering as far as whether I enjoyed the story or would give to my kid.
The chipmunks gets into altercations with a new neighbour once they decide they want to rid themselves of this pesky chipmunk. It’s reminiscent of the movie Over the Hedge.

This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Paul Burt ). Interesting choice he made for the chipmunks voice. I prefer not to have a squeaky voice, but I’m still not sure this one works. His style makes me aware I’m being read to due to the emphasis on words unlike typical speech. It’s likely more his cadence and emphasis I found uncomfortable.

There are no explicit sex scenes, or excessive violence. There is occasional swearing like ‘cold day in hell’.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Irreverent and amusing tale about a chipmunk with vengeance in mind

If you've ever wondered what the world might be like for a chipmunk and his pals, particularly if they were facing down some not very friendly neighbors, this book is for you. I'd say it's a bit like Over the Hedge meets Batteries Not Included with its own narratives and plenty of humor. Audio work was great and fits the overall tone nicey, including unique characters and an overall tone that helps navigate us through sudden change, rodent warfare, and plenty of good points about the cost of human ignorance on wildlife. Highly recommended!

voice was off

Not my favorite story and i didn't feel like the narrator was the right chose for the role even thow he did a great job.

That voice !!

Ugh the voice was just not for me. I felt it was part mobster part hoodlum. Letting my grandkids listen to it next to see if they have a better reaction. Reminded me of a movie we saw about renegade animals. Received this book at no charge in exchange for an honest review.

excellent

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall
