Praise

 “The relationships that evolve between various characters as the plot thickens will hold the young reader’s attention.  The story moves quickly, and children will want to keep turning the page to see what will happen next.”                                 —Jen Fitzgerald, Rutgers University

“I just wanted to THANK YOU for coming into our class.  Your presence was a reward for us all.  I don’t think you realize quite how powerful and inspirational you are to this particular group of students.  Your influence has impacted and shaped who they are as both readers and writers and will continue to influence them in years to come.  You truly made their day and it is because of you that nearly my entire class learned their multiplication facts!  I can’t thank you enough for gracing us with your presence.  THANK YOU!”
—Merrianne Vassallo, third-grade teacher, Meadowside School

“I so much enjoyed reading Manuel and the Lobsterman. It is an excellent book that addresses many issues that young people struggle with. The resolution of Manuel’s thorny trials left me feeling optimistic. We need more characters like Manuel and Zeke in today’s literature.”
—Former Bank Street Teacher
