REVIEWS:
A WONDERFUL YEAR by Nick Bruel
BCCB, February 2015 issue
“Bruel combines comic book and picture-book layouts, rendering his heroine and her animal companions with a heavy solidity that plays comically against the airy-fairy unreality permeating her Everygirl experiences.”
Antoinette Portis’ Froodle is filled with fun onomatopoeias from all different kinds of birds! Here is the Japanese edition from Asunaro Shobo – and as a bonus, the front flap features some of the exciting sounds Asunaro created for their book.
Froodle is a fabulously inventive picture book about what happens when a little brown bird grows tired of singing the same old song...
It received a starred review from Kirkus and has been licensed in two territories.
Up next from Antoinette Portis: Wait (July 2015), a simple, sweet picture book about the joys of waiting and taking in what is around you.

TUCK EVERLASTING: 40th ANNIVERSARY by Natalie Babbitt
NPR All Things Considered, January 29, 2015: “The Gift of Eternal Shelf Life: Tuck Everlasting Turns 40”
“Looking back, Babbitt tells NPR's Melissa Block, ‘I think [that passage] was really hard to write. Except in a way it wasn't, because this is what the book is about.’”
REVIEWS:
THE SECRETS WE KEEP by Trisha Leaver
VOYA, February/March 2015 issue: STARRED REVIEW!
« “Brilliant…The compelling premise will attract readers and the strong characterization will keep them enthralled.”
CUT ME FREE by J.R. Johnasson
BCCB, February 2015 issue
“Suspenseful.”
VOYA, February/March 2015 issue
FIGHT FOR POWER: The Rule of Three, Book #2 by Eric Walters
VOYA, February/March 2015 issue
“The hard moral choices continue and the main character, Adam, grows in his leadership skills but is still wrestling with the morality of difficult choices they all must make to survive after the collapse of civilization.”
TUCK EVERLASTING: 40th ANNIVERSARY by Natalie Babbitt
The Wall Street Journal, January 23, 2015: SCAN ATTACHED
“Early disapproval of Tuck Everlasting seems all the more remarkable at this remove, given how frequently death has come to feature in books for young readers.”
