Reviews
"Olien's cartoon illustrations create a playfully realistic portrait of pre-dinner-party jitters, making the event's eventual success all the more winning." - Publishers Weekly "A prime choice for a light-hearted readaloud." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Praise for ADRIFT: "[With a] tongue-in-cheek text...[this is] an offbeat selection for Valentine's Day...sneak this one into a primary-grade science unit." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Praise for ADRIFT: "The simple storyline and art complement each other as readers are gently guided to comprehend the folly of judging a book by its cover." - Kirkus Reviews Praise for THE BLOBFISH BOOK: "Delivers big laughs." - Publishers Weekly Praise for SHARK DETECTIVE: "Delightful...the story is strangely inspirational...Many readers will demand further adventures-or imagine them for themselves." - Kirkus Reviews Praise for SHARK DETECTIVE: "Nothing slows the determination of chip-munching Shark in this lively romp through the mean streets. He's one cool sleuth." - School Library Journal Praise for SHARK DETECTIVE: "Shark is an endearing goofball worth rooting for." - Publishers Weekly
