Pete has always been religious and looking for salvation, so he easly falls under the mesmerizing influence of the Preacher Man who comes to town to lead a revival meeting. When the Precher Man invites Pete to join him on his mission, Pete can't say no, even if it means leaving behind his family, his best friend Rufus, and the home he loves. But during the long night he waits in vain for the Preacher Man--who has left town with a teenaged girl instead of Pete--he learns whom he can really depend on.

From AudioFile:
A FINE WHITE DUST is one of Rylant's older, lesser-known works, resurrected for this audio production. Thirteen-year-old Pete is "best friends with an atheist," and his parents are only "half-washed Christians," but he has a religious "itch" that needs scratchin'. It's the summer the Preacher Man arrives in his small town for a series of revival meetings. Keith Nobbs tells Pete's story with the exaggerated, enthusiastic lilt of a revivalist preacher as Pete finds a balm for his itch. Nobbs fills Pete's voice with awe as he attempts to make sense of "being saved" and comes to terms with the value of faith, friends, and family. N.E.M. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
