Reviews
Praise for the Absolutely Alfie books: "A sunny narrative reminiscent of the Junie B. Jones books but more sophisticated...Authentic and appealing...." --Booklist on Absolutely Alfie & the Furry, Purry Secret
Praise for the EllRay Jakes Series by Sally Warner
"A lively series . . . clever plotting . . . ingenious narration." --Publishers Weekly "Ideal for reluctant readers." --Booklist "Warner is a dead-on observer of playground politics, and has a great ear for dialogue."--School Library Journal "Young readers can identify with EllRay, who is neither a bad seed nor a goody-two-shoes; he and his sense of humor are just right." --Kirkus Reviews
