REVIEWS:

Kirkus, May 15, 2014: 2nd STARRED REVIEW!
« “Lively and charming…High-flying fun.”
THE BODY IN THE WOODS by April Henry
Kirkus, May 15, 2014 issue
**CONFIDENTIAL TO THE TRADE UNTIL May 4, 2014**
“A quick, thrilling read that doesn’t skimp on characterization.”
DINNER WITH THE HIGHBROWS by Kimberly Willis Holt
BCCB, May 2014 issue

REVIEWS:
GRAVITY by Jason Chin
BCCB, May 2014 issue: 4th STARRED REVIEW!
« “The sort of mind-bending fantasy that will appeal to fans of David Wiesner. And it is, but Chin is also a dab hand at blending imagination with information, and to readers who watched him blithely flood the New York Public Library to further a marine biology lesson inCoral Reefs, it will come as no surprise that his universe-disturbing Gravity likewise delivers a solid science lesson.”

REVIEWS:
ANNIKA RIZ, MATH WHIZ: Franklin School Friends, Book #2 by Claudia Mills, illus. by Rob Shepperson
BCCB, May 2014 issue
“Mills delivers with a felicitous blend of breezy accessibility and perceptive understanding. Annika, a not-particularly-nerdy math-loving girl (“She couldn’t bear to leave a math question unanswered”), is an excellent ambassador for her passion.”
FRED’S BEDS by Barbara Samuels
Kirkus, May 15, 2014
“Bold, bright illustrations have a fresh appeal, with juicy colors, varied perspectives and fanciful flowers, along with the drolly humorous beagle…Clever and charming.”
Publishers Weekly, April 25, 2014
“Fred’s travails, body language, and ability to make a bed out of just about anything make for entertaining reading, but it’s his mutually adoring relationship with Zelda that will resonate most strongly with young pet lovers.”
ON THE ROAD TO FIND OUT by Rachel Toor
Kirkus, May 15, 2014
“In a light and gently humorous romance, self-centered Alice learns to run, to cope with disappointment and to consider other people’s feelings…Warm, funny and wise.”
QUEEN ON WEDNESDAY by Gabi Swiatkowska
Publishers Weekly, April 29, 2014: AUTHOR INTERVIEW (READ IT HERE!)
“Some manuscripts offer a lot of creative space, whereas others require a strict interpretation. The one interesting limit I find is my emotional reaction to a manuscript, which, curiously, implies very little or no wiggle room at all. This is not to say that I leave it altogether unchallenged, with various results.”

AWARDS:
· AMERICAN BORN CHINESE by Gene Luen Yang / A Flavorwire “25 Essential Graphic Novels”
REVIEWS:
THE SHADOW HERO by Gene Luen Yang, illus. by Sonny Liew
Publishers Weekly, April 25, 2014: STARRED REVIEW!
« “Racism, romance, humor, and identity all play important roles in Yang and Liew’s evocation of Hank’s life in pre-WWII San Francisco as they create an origin story that blends classic comics conventions (at one point, Hank’s mother pushes him into a toxic spill in an attempt to give him superpowers) with a distinctly Chinese perspective.”
Kirkus, May 15, 2014
“Growing up in Chinatown, Hank Chu dreams of becoming a grocer like his father. His mother makes other plans for his future, however, after she sees the local, white superhero in action…An entertaining and intelligent response to classic superhero stories.”
THE GLORKIAN WARRIOR DELIVERS A PIZZA by James Kochalka
SLJ Fuse #8, April 21, 2014: REVIEW OF THE DAY (READ IT HERE!)
“[Kochalka’s] funniest and most ambitious bit of space-based lunacy to date…You can’t help but love a book where the Don Quixote of space is accompanied by a Sancho Panza-like talking backpack.”
