Industry Reviews

A Publishers Weekly bestselling series!Praise for The Last Firehawk #1: The Ember Stone: "The first book in this new series brings the animal fantasy genre to early chapter book readers.... The adventure is nonstop, making this an ideal choice for reluctant readers.... Detailed black-and-white illustrations blend well with the text, and will keep kids engaged. VERDICT: A strong beginning to an adventure series for chapter book readers, especially those who are not quite ready for Erin Hunter's 'Warriors' or Kathryn Lasky's 'Guardians of Ga'Hoole.'" -- School Library Journal"A promising start to a series for fledgling fantasy readers." -- Kirkus ReviewsPraise for Branches books: "These books should be considered for larger libraries wanting to enhance their easy-reader collections." -- School Library Journal"A nice stepping stone to more advanced chapter books." -- Booklist
