After writing 35 + books for kids, I’ve learned to be patient (sort of) while I wait to hear what folks think of my latest project. There’s the pre-publishing buzz created by book reviewers who get advanced copies. But then, silence.
What I’m finally figuring out is that silence is actually people reading the book and then (hopefully) telling others how great (or not so great) it is. And that’s where we’re at with Tank & Fizz: The Case of the Slime Stampede.
Yesterday, my amazing GamingEdus pal Diana Maliszewski tweeted out an equally amazing review from Penny Draper (a great author herself!), writing for the Toronto Public Library.
Turns out they like the slime! Here’s some highlights of they said about Tank & Fizz:
The Case of the Slime Stampede is the first book in the irresistible new Tank and Fizz mystery series. A combination of chapter book and graphic novel, the fast-paced action is driven by realistic dialogue, well-placed cartoons and wildly strange, yet believable, characters and situations.
A cross between Inspector Gadget and Monsters, Inc., the ogres, goblins and trolls of Slick City will ooze their slimy way into the hearts of readers.
