Keep Young Readers on the Edge of Their Seats

My middle-grade novel Sunshine has a summertime setting, and it’s a book with plenty of substance for young readers who want to immerse themselves in a gripping story. As the Bulletin for the Center of Children’s Books says: “The atmospheric setting, meanwhile, sets the stage for hard-won lessons in courage and independence, with just enough danger to keep readers on the edge of their seats. Ultimately a moving story of forgiveness and early maturity, it’s also a strong recommendation for adventure readers and dog lovers.”
