Praise for Ms. Bixby's Last Day: "Anderson skillfully balances realism and comic exaggeration in an emotionally rich tale that holds no miracles, other than the small human kind." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Sad and satisfying in just the right amounts." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "A smart, funny, ultimately moving novel." - Booklist (starred review) Praise for The Dungeoneers: "In a delightful deconstruction of role-playing clichés, Anderson gives D&D-style dungeon-delving the Harry Potter approach." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) Praise for Minion: "One of the pleasures of superhero stories is guessing what's coming next, but the joy here is that most of the time readers will guess wrong. Michael is as complex as the best Marvel and DC characters, and his dialogue is just as funny." - Kirkus Reviews Praise for Sidekicked: "From memorable characters to a complex yet accessible plot, this is a superhero story that any comics fan will enjoy.


" - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "As riveting a rendition of superdom as even Superman's creator, Jerry Siegel, could have pulled off." - New York Times Book Review "Written with understated humor and fine-tuned perception, Frost's first-person narrative offers a riveting story as well as an uncomfortably realistic picture of middle school social dynamics." - Booklist (starred review) "Anderson dives into the world of middle school with a clear sense of how it works and what it needs. Kids, and the rest of the world, need more books like this one." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Anderson captures the tumultuous joys and pains of middle school with honesty, creating characters with whom readers will find common ground and insight. Words have lingering and persistent power, Anderson makes clear, but so does standing up for others and making one's voice heard." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Acute observations about social media and school life and a smart, engaging narrator make this a journey well worth taking. Readers might even want some Post-it notes to mark the good parts.
