Praise for ONE LAST SHOT: "Anderson beautifully blends tough topics and humor, perfecting the recipe for young readers. Malcolm's struggles with his love and heartbreak for his parents, and the news of the loss of a premature brother, will resonate with readers as he negotiates the new roles in his family." - School Library Journal (starred review) Praise for ONE LAST SHOT: "Readers will cheer when Malcolm finally comes into his own. A well-crafted, emotionally resonant book, brightened by irrepressible wit." - Booklist (starred review) "Riley is a multi-layered and sympathetic protagonist, and Anderson gets the blend of the supernatural and psychological right." - The Horn Book Praise for FINDING ORION: "Eccentric yet believable characters and Rion's perceptive narration prevent Anderson's unpredictable tale from feeling overwrought as the relationships between three generations of fathers and sons are rewritten anew." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) Praise for GRANTED: "Anderson provides wonderfully convincing details about his imagined 'world of waning wonder,' where fairies struggle to keep magic alive. A faithful dog, a good friend, and pinch of magic work wonders in this modern fairy tale.


" - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Praise for POSTED: "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) "Its slowly unraveling central mystery presents a humanizing account of outcasts, the friends who betray them, and the trauma that follows." - Kirkus Reviews "Lots of humor, a little horror, and a dash of the bizarre round things out. Highly recommended." - School Library Journal (starred review) "A tale to test the nerve of all fifth-graders who are looking ahead to junior high and finding themselves anxious about what's in store." - Booklist (starred review).
