The Flying Flamingo Sisters 2

A Tale of Derring-Deux

By: Carrie Seim

Narrated by: Khristine Hvam, Jessica Almasy, Carrie Seim, Dina Pearlman, Gabriel Vaughan, Bill Quinn, Kevin Pariseau, Kendra Fountain, Barrett Leddy, Tom Lenk

The Flying Flamingo Sisters—Flo, Faye, and Franny—are back for another hilarious, heartfelt, and soaring adventure in their barnstorming biplane! This highly anticipated sequel from best-selling author Carrie Seim will delight fans of Indiana Jones, Encanto, and Lemony Snicket. Performed as a 1930s radio drama, it’s bursting with humor for all ages, orchestral scoring, and famous voices from stage and screen.

Convinced that their dastardly uncle Freidrich has escaped with their family fortune, the Flamingo Sisters return home to the Upper Lower Valley Mountain Rural Region in despair. But when their beloved mentor Elsie de la Rue goes missing—and they discover a new clue that may lead them to their lost Golden Flamingo—the three sisters take off on another thrilling chase in the skies! They join the death-defying pilots of the Women’s Air Derby, then hopscotch from New York to France to Egypt, determined to stop their uncle (who believes girls should never fly aeroplanes) from spreading evil across the globe.

The Flamingo Sisters must use wits, courage, and derring-do to solve secret codes (and sibling spats), trek through terrifying temples, rescue their ace pilot parents, and save Elsie de la Rue. Not to mention themselves!

Now available in Dolby Atmos on Audible.

Amazing second chapter and lighthearted adventure

My nieces (ages 9, 11 and 12) have been eagerly awaiting the next installment of the Flying Flamingo sisters since we read about the first story in the New York Times as a "best audio book for road trips" selection two years ago. Flamingo's two (ie Part-Deux) provides a satisfying conclusion to the story and features all the things we liked about the first story amped up to "eleven" once more.

The three Flamingo sisters are all smart, resourceful and delightful young ladies who use intelligence, resourcefulness and ingenuity to solve problems and outwit the bad guys. The girls fly their way across the United States, Europe and North Africa as the story unfolds. The entire Flamingos saga is a fun evocation of a grand adventure in the spirit of Indiana Jones, Duck Tales or the Mummy with exotic locales, big action sequences, spectacular aerobatics, dastardly villains and at the center three amazing and talented young ladies in the lead roles. Just like the first book, the lighthearted story rollicks along at a breakneck pace featuring humor, witty wordplay and heart in equal measure. The side characters who populate the story (Bessie Bolt was our favorite) liven up the story as well. The audio is in the style of an old-timey radio drama and includes background music and sound effects to heighten the listening experience and features a talented cast of voice actors who all bring their "A" games to the performance. We finished the story in one listen on a drive from New York to Boston and the girls immediately wanted to hear the whole story again. A delightful diversion for the whole family perfect for a rainy weekend afternoon or a long drive.

Wonderful Sequel

We are thrilled with the new Flying Flamingo Sisters story. We have listened to it about 20 times already. The writers and voice actors have done a great job. My daughters were asking if some of the characters were real historical persons. I'm guessing at least one was inspired by Bessie Coleman, and I do know the 99's were a real group. What a great way to share these stories with kids. We'll be waiting for installment 3!

Another hit!!

I was so upset it was taking so long for part 2 but now it was sooo worth it. Great story! GREAT performances!! Couldn't put my headphones down. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO READ AFTER PART 1... Will be listening to this again!

Flying Flamingos

Love this serial radio show story. The story line is engaging and the tidbits of knowledge that are sprinkled in are fascinating.
Can’t wait till the 3rd installment.

Love These Sisters!

Such a fun series. Even that Uncle Frederick cracks me up and I'll definitely stay tune for number three!
