Kirkus Reviews on ODD ONE OUT: BIG AND SMALL "A quirky counting book that's mostly distinguished by van Genechten's entertaining crew of strong men, acrobats, and jugglers." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY on CIRCUS 123 "Even the very young will understand that there were none to begin with, a notion that may banish at least some nighttime anxietyand provide bedtime giggles as well." - Publishers Weekly on NO GHOST UNDER MY BED "A little ghost unapologetically makes the most of being different....Different never looked so appealing." - Kirkus Reviews on GILBERT THE GHOST "Little ones ages 4 and older will relate to this charming tale of Little Snowman Stan, who is told hes not allowed to move, run and play; to basically stand still and be seen, not heard. Across the cool, illustrated pages, Stan finds his freedom at last. A grand adventure!" - Nashville Parent on LITTLE SNOWMAN STAN
