Fans of Roald Dahl will appreciate not just the humor, adventure, and ogres but also the unlikely hero at the center of it all.
Only libraries with high circulation of reimagined fairy tales should consider. ["Readers will enjoy the fairy-tale setting while identifying with the real-life problems of living in an appearance-obsessed society. A distinguished addition to any collection": SLJ 9/06 review of the HarperCollins book.]
PreS Up—Niemann's latest app is designed for children but is one that teens and adults will find as much fun—and as addictive—as youngsters...
A good purchase for libraries with series fans. Otherwise, the visuals make for a hopelessly dated viewing.
This is an exceptional production that merits a place in any library serving children. ["Highly recommended as a reference book, anexample of poetic forms, and a work of art": SLJ 1/15 review of the Roaring Brook book.]
Pérez's latest, recipient of a 2016 Printz Honor, is wide-eyed testimony to the undeniable best and unrelenting worst of humanity; turning away (or turning off) is never an option. ["Set against the backdrop of an actual historical event, Pérez's young adult novel gives voice to many long-omitted facets of U.S. history": SLJ 6/15 starred review of the Carolrhoda Lab book.]
Ideal for history and political science classes, as well as for those that discuss current topics and/or Latino culture. Also a strong addition to any library for its insights into the immigration experience.
This fast-paced story with a smart protagonist will delight young fans of horror and intrigue. ["The strong female lead and adventure on every page will keep any reader entertained from the first page to the last": SLJ 12/15 review of the Viking book.]
