Great Read
Once again, Max Elliott Anderson has penned a winner with his captivating new novel "Big Rig Rustlers." Anderson is a talented writer of adventurous narratives for tweeners, readers between the ages of 8 to 13. "Big Rig Rustlers" is a timely tale packed with non-stop action. Anderson uses: realistic dialogue to move his story from episode to episode, authentic action to maintain interest, and plots that hold the readers interest from first page to last.
Another Max Elliot Anderson Adventure

Joe Moran
A book fraught with danger,adventure,fun,and strategy, it makes a wonderful fairy-tale. It's a book that will be a favorite forever on your bookshelf!The way the sailing ships got goofed up with chess pieces made me laugh out loud!I recomend this book for everyone, especially for kids,(because I'm pretty young myself!)Happy reading!

Interesting, engaging, and creative Adventure
I would wholeheartedly recommend Len Bailey's new book, "Clabbernappers".It was an extremely creative adventure story about an eleven year old boy, Danny Ray, who at the county fair, gets a choice of a prize or walking through a door marked "Adventure".Being the adventurous type, he goes through the door and finds himself offering to find the missing queen for the King of Elidor in time for the Great Chess Game.The story takes place on a chessboard with the chess pieces as ships on the "Checkered Sea".It's the good guys against the bad guys- Danny Ray and his friends on the ship "Hog", fighting off the Sarksa pirates (which are big black ant-like creatures) in search of the queen.There are gargoyles, bats, ghosts and countless other creatures in this creative novel, whose hero, Danny Ray, is one really confident boy.He never lets himself think that he cannot accomplish what he has set out to do.I would recommend this book to anyone looking to read a fast-paced adventure set in a completely different place than they've read about before.It was well written; I could visualize the characters and places in the story. I enjoyed it very much and am going to have my kids (ages 8, 10, and 12) read it next!

just the title of this book makes me want to vomit

A TALL TEXAS TALE FOR YOUNGSTERS
When a critter halfway as high as Butterfly Butte comes upon some cowboys and their chuck wagon, he devours not only the beans but the pot, too.Now, that's an appetite. Lots of fun
Tyrannosaurus Tex is my 4 1/2 year old daughter's favorite book.The story and illustrations are wonderful and the combination of dinosaurs and cowboys is ingenious.

My son's favorite book!
My son & I found this in the library and subsequently bought our own copy, we love it so much.A lot of fun, especially when Tex arrives and eats the pot of beans, pot and all! ... Read more

Question and answer session
In his preface, James explains that his reason for writing this book was to answer the "many questions and of the kind that's been asked of me often." Although packaged in the guise of a story, UNCLE BILL manages to be little more than a question and answer book-and only slightly more entertaining.Read more
