Editorial Reviews

Stevie Wooten, May 2023

I read this book with my 10-year old grandson. He was ENTHRALLED!!! I am serious! We read until we ran out of time and I had to get him back home. We would get to the "Challenges" at the end of the chapters and he just loved them.

So, I kept the book here and we made another date for the following Sunday to finish reading it. He was so happy to read about Sam, a character from Seattle, our home town. He was happy that in the end Pinky and Mariana became friends.

I enjoyed the book as well, and think it's simply wonderful to be read with a child.
