Testimonial - Adult Ed educator

I've been tutoring a 26 year old "kid," an inmate in a correctional facility, to improve his marginal reading skills. He loves the first in the Junkyard Dan series. As he tells me often, "this will be the first book I've ever read." I'm writing to tell Elise Leonard what a great idea she had to do the series, and how "on target" she is in the approach, humor, content and "voice" of the narrator. Beautifully done. Keep up the great work.Cheers,

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.

From a Middle-Grade educator

The Junkyard Dan novels turned my students from resisters to readers. These engaging stories that are easy to read caught their attention and kept it.

Once one student read the first Junkyard Dan novel and moved onto the second, I had to buy extra sets because of the number of students asking to read them.

Boys who never wanted to read before were asking to take the books home so they could finish them.
