"Harper's skill as a storyteller shines through in the solid characters and engaging plot. Substantial yet quick, Poppy's latest adventure will find an audience of eager readers." -- School Library Journal "Just the right balance of whimsy and skepticism to engage both pro- and anti-mermaid readers. Adding further appeal is the balance between Poppy's exasperation with her family and all she learns from them." -- Booklist "A skeptic trapped in a family of believers comes face to face with nasty nautical ladies in the third book of a series." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for A Gaggle of Goblins: "A satisfying tale for skeptical tweens, who will eagerly await Poppy's further adventures." -- ALA Booklist Praise for A Gaggle of Goblins: "Two worlds collide in this jaunty and easily digestible story of magic and domestic mayhem." -- The Horn Book Praise for A Gaggle of Goblins: "The book shines through the consistently amusing dynamics and dialogue among the Malones; Harper has abundant fun with the Malone parents' eccentricities, and kids will too.

Readers will want more from this family." -- Publishers Weekly "Harper's skill as a storyteller shines through in the sold characters and engaging plot. Substantial yet quick, Poppy's latest adventure will find an audience of eager readers." -- School Library Journal.
