Testimonial - Adult Ed educator

I tutor individual adult students in our county's literacy program, and I want you to know what a hit your books are with my students. They read them with enthusiasm and can't wait for the next chapter. They relate to the characters completely, and they thoroughly enjoy the humor and the richness of the character development. We laugh out loud together frequently, and this relaxes them and helps them feel less inhibited about reading aloud to me.

I expected that my male students would enjoy the series, but I have been amazed that my female student is the biggest fan of all. She will stay longer than required just to read another chapter or two aloud, and she is the most shy of all my students.

Thanks for making these available. I hope you are working on many more volumes of Junkyard Dan and that you will develop additional series in the future.

Gratefully,

Testimonial - HS educator
My students love your books. I do not have but one in my room now. Students take them and never return them. I think they go from cell to cell.

Keep up the good work.

I teach 6, 7 and 8th grade Resource Literacy. My students are reading between K-3rd grade level. I have really struggled to find books that are interesting to them (not my dog fetched the ball), and are at their level. Our wonderful Media Specialist knew of you and the series from working at a Juvenile Prison. He ordered your books and hoped that my kids would like them. The books came in yesterday, and I shared a few with my classes, and all of my boys have already been to the library and checked them out!!
