Reviews

Praise for A Pie for Us! (Best Buddies #1):

A School Library Journal's Best Book of 2023

* "It is not easy to find engaging stories at very beginning reading levels, and this one stands out for all the right reasons. Highly recommended." -- School Library Journal, starred review

Praise for Happy Paws (Layla and the Bots #1) by Vicky Fang:

"This easy-to-predict story, told in a mix of text and speech balloons, will give new readers confidence while imparting solid STEM lessons of research and implementation, and it's great to see a young girl of color portrayed as a confident inventor (and rock star). A solid introduction for an appealing new chapter-book character." -- Kirkus Reviews

"This transitional chapter book is ideal for emergent or early fluency readers. It includes charming illustrations to assist with decoding, and interesting STEM themes... this bright, inventive title would make a nice addition to a library's early chapter book collection." -- School Library Journal
