REVIEWS:

KID SHERIFF AND THE TERRIBLE TOADS by Bob Shea, illus. by Lane Smith
SLJ, July 2014 issue: STARRED REVIEW!
«“Shea’s humor is spot-on in Sherriff Ryan’s unwavering logic and assumptions, and his distinct characters will make this an instant hit. Smith’s illustrations, with grainy color and vivid textures, match the deadpan silliness to a tee.”


NEIGHBORHOOD SHARKS: Hunting with the Great Whites of California’s Farallon Islands by Katherine Roy
SLJ, July 2014 issue: STARRED REVIEW!
«“Shark lovers of all ages will enjoy poring over the intense, vivid images…An excellent introduction.”


VIVA FRIDA by Yuyi Morales
Publishers Weekly, June 16, 2014: STARRED REVIEW!
«“Readers will recognize Morales’s handmade Frida Kahlo doll from Kahlo’s self-portraits—Morales’s doll has the same haunting beauty and direct gaze…Frida lives because she loves and creates.”
                http://us.macmillan.com/vivafrida/YuyiMorales


THE ORCHESTRA PIT by Johanna Wright
SLJ, July 2014 issue
“Mistakenly arriving at an orchestra pit filled with young musicians tuning up for an impending concert, the creature first explores some brass instruments…This charming introduction to the orchestra and its instruments was made to be shared.”


THE WORLD ACCORDING TO MUSK OX by Erin Cabatingan, illus. by Matthew Myers
SLJ, July 2014 issue
“Long-suffering Zebra tries to interest self-centered Musk Ox in other parts of the world besides his home in the Arctic…Goofy.”

REVIEWS:

THIS ONE SUMMER by Mariko Tamaki, illus. by Jillian Tamaki
Shelf Awareness, June 17, 2014: 7th STARRED REVIEW!
«“[Mariko and Jillian Tamaki] exploit the graphic novel form to its fullest potential…Stunning.”

Paste Magazine, June 5, 2014: READ IT HERE!
“A subtle, beautiful, intelligent read…[This One Summer] pulls off the clever trick of rendering nostalgia without romanticism, capturing the feel of summer when it actually meant something.”

SLJ, June 4, 2014: Summer Reading Round-Up
“The two friends test the waters of teenhood by watching slasher films and thinking of ways to get a glimpse of this year’s crush.”


THE SHADOW HERO by Gene Luen Yang, illus. by Sonny Liew
“There's nobody working in comics today who's more adept at finding the hilarious in and around the serious (and tragic) and the serious (and tragic) in the hilarious.”

HOLT BYR HIGHLIGHTS

REVIEWS:

BODY IN THE WOODS by April Henry
MacTeenBooks, June 13, 2014: Author Blog: On Inspiration and Editing
“When I learned that MCSO SAR not only looks for people lost in the wilderness but also searches for crime scene evidence and even recovers bodies, I knew it what I had long sought: a realistic idea for a teen mystery series.”


EDWARD HOPPER PAINTS HIS WORLD by Robert Burleigh, illus. by Wendell Minor
SLJ, July 2014 issue
Minor’s art, lush and perfectly varied with pencil sketches interspersed between colorful paintings, is accompanied by Burleigh’s compelling text… Minor has reenvisioned many of Hopper’s well-known works, placing Hopper in the picture, depicting the artist as he surveys the scenes that inspired his paintings.”


TALES OF BUNJITSU BUNNY by John Himmelman
SLJ¸ July 2014 issue
“Delightful short stories about a little bunny named Isabel, who is mighty in spirit.”
