Reviews

Praise for MAPMAKER: "Readers will be absorbed as they explore fantastical worlds through his curious and enthusiastic eyes. An exciting and imaginative read." -- Kirkus Reviews

"Rame's fast-paced debut centering on a Black protagonist engagingly leaves gaps for the reader to fill in with their own creativity and imagination, and themes of pushing against gendered expectations give the story emotional weight. A perfect fit for fans of Kwame Mbalia's Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky." -- Booklist

"This is an exciting adventure full of friendship and heart with a likable nerdy-Black-kid protagonist.... Readers will enjoy the well-drawn characters as well as the fantastical landscapes and imaginative creatures in Walt's magical world." -- Horn Book Magazine

"In an ambitious fantasy, Lisa Moore Rame [explores] themes of gender norms and racism through a fantasy adventure with friendship elements. A creative story of embracing one's prowess." -- Publishers Weekly

"In her first fantasy for young readers, Lisa Moore Rame puts her distinctively authentic tween characters into a world where magic glimmers underneath the surface, creating an inventive fantastical adventure that explores the many ways to be tough and how powerful having a big imagination can be." -- Anne Ursu, author of The Troubled Girls of Dragomir Academy
