I can't post it all here because I don't want to infringe on copyright stuff but Kirkus Magazine had some very nice things to say about Sir Ryan's Quest. My favorite little piece said that my book is "the spark for an imagination bonfire."
[2.26.09] A lot of stuff has been happening behind the scenes recently. I'm at work on a new book for Roaring Brook Press about the universe. Sir Ryan's Quest comes out soon. I'm going to be visiting a bunch of libraries and stores in the near future. And, I'm making a cool little postcard to send out to folks. What do you think?
