Praise for Saffy, first book in the Simply Small series: Chosen as a top pick by Canadian Children's Centre, Best Books for Kids and Teens, 2009 Chosen as the Resource Links - Year's Best 2008 "An ambitious giraffe wants to do everything grownups do, but she's too small to reach a leaf on even the lowest branch, and too stubborn to let her mom do it for her." - Canadian Family, Review of Saffy Praise for Perry: "Perry the baby polar bear swims his first stroke towards independence, and finds his way back to mommy again. The satisfying story manages to have a beginning, middle and end with just five or fewer words per page." - Canadian Family Family Tested: We love the drawings and it was nice that there was a point to the story. Lola repeats the words to herself. I'll buy the rest of the series.
