  • "I was up until 1 a.m. reading 'Ariadne and the Magic Thread.' I could not put it down!"
  • "I had a teacher drop by the office yesterday. I had printed out the (Stories in the Stars) series and teacher’s guide. She reviewed it and was literally star struck: 'Oh my gosh, this is unreal. Everything I need and more. I can build my entire unit around this. Oh my gosh, language arts too . . . Can I have a copy of this now?'"
  • "Nobody else seem to write serial stories the way you do -- our readers love your work!"
  • "I started publishing your stories and my circulation on Monday (our story day) has increased over 60 percent. The teachers have especially enjoyed the stories that can stand alone and that follow the state-mandated curriculum."
  • "The drawings are beautifully done and have great appeal to readers."
  • "My assigned graphic artist and I just had a look at the series. Beautiful – just beautiful! The students and their teachers are going to love this (not to mention our subscribers). Keep 'em coming. Thank you so much for such a great product."
