I am going to be on the road most of the next 2 weeks. Would this be appropriate and enjoyable for my 7 y.o.? (I think my 10 y.o. would be ok with it but she'll read most anything.)

If not, I will probably be a few days late for discussion.

Wonderful! I planned to read it this time around, but I'll bump it up so I can listen to the dramatization afterwards.

Same here, I bought book and audio versions. I've put off starting it as I want it to be as fresh in my mind as possible when the discussion starts. For The Three Musketeers a month had passed before the discussion, and with several books under my belt after it, my memory of the story was already impaired.

In addition to Hoopla, YouTube has the dramatization.
