About this listen

 Jake lives with his parents in a holiday hideaway hotel; the hotel's main attraction is that it is a "kid-free" zone. When a couple from a magazine arrive to do a feature on the hotel, Jake must keep out of the way to ensure they have a great kid-free time. But things don't go according to plan.©2001 Creative Input Pty Ltd. (P)2003 Bolinda Publishing Pyt Ltd by arrangement with Penguin Group (Australia) Chapter Books & Readers Literature & Fiction

Editorial reviews

When your parents own and operate an "adults only" resort, you spend most of your time trying your best to stay out of sight. For Jake, that means exploring the remote island he calls home by himself, surfing the Internet alone, and attending school via a two-way radio. Adults Only, written and performed with an enchanting animation by Morris Gleitzman, follows Jake as he’s pushed to the brink of loneliness while marooned out on his parents’ resort. In a moment of desperation, he sends out a mass email hoping to attract some kids. What happens next, though, Jake could never imagine.

Short and enthralling, one of the best super natural stories I’ve read, especially for one aimed at kids!
