Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
on Cottonball Colin
book title "Willis's matter-of-fact tone and occasional short phrases keep her story fresh, active, and immediate, and the book's underlying message is handled without sentimentality of heavy-handedness." more reviews

CBA Retailers & Resources
on Psalms for Young Children
book title "It's worth the price of admission to this enchanting book for young children to have access to the gorgeous illustrations in Psalms for Young Children. They're quite unusual and original, fitting beautifully with the paraphrased Psalms written so that even the very young can understand them." book information


Austin American-Statesman
on Still My Grandma
book title "For younger readers, finding simple ways to convey complex challenges is the trick. And books designed to inform the wee set about aging or death can easily turn saccharine or, worse, pedantic. Veronique Van den Abeele's Still My Grandma escapes both of these traps in its explanations of Alzheimer's disease." more reviews

Kirkus Reviews
on Always with You
book title "Based on a true story, this story documents the hardships of war in a personal way that older children will undoubtedly understand." book information
