Praise for Glam Prix Racers:
Wacky Races meets Candy Crush with mermaids and monster trucks! It's impossible NOT to smile as you read. ... Glam Prix Racers fizzes with fast-paced fun! --Mo O'Hara, New York Times bestselling author of the My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish series
Bursts with energy ... High-energy from its very first page, Glam Prix Racers is centered on team spirit and adventure, undoubtedly leaving readers anticipating the series' next installment. --Canadian Children's Book Centre
With ample nods to video games...the plot zooms as easily as a supersonic 'turbo-toot.' Kent's quirky dialogue provides laughs while Hooson's cartoon artwork bursts with energy; together, the previous collaborators (the Snazzy Cat Capers series) blend the colorful, high-octane world of race car driving with a candy-coated lesson in friendship and perseverance. --Publishers Weekly
Animated illustrations will appeal to a range of young readers who will find a character to relate to. ... Each Glam Prix racer demonstrates the importance of adaptability, risk-taking, and perseverance as they face challenges along the way. Perfect for fans of fantasy graphic novels. --School Library Journal

I want to be Ophelia when I grow up!! And I want Oscar to be my BFF--Best Fishy Friend! Snazzy Cat Capers is fabulous, funny and fin-tastic fun with illustrations that pounce off the page. --Mo O'Hara, New York Times bestselling author of the My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish series
Classy bad girl Ophelia is as funny as she is furry. ... She's the pussycat love child of James Bond and Zsa Zsa Gabor, and who can't love that --Kirkus Reviews
More than a just sharply dressed classy kitty. ... Ophelia and Fishgerald squabble and lob quips with amusing ease. --The Bulletin
Deanna Kent and Neil Hooson have worked on books, brand and marketing campaigns, and interactive experiences. Deanna loves twinkle lights, black licorice, and Edna Mode, and she may be the only person on the planet who says "teamwork makes the dream work" without a hint of sarcasm. Neil is king of a Les Paul guitar, makes killer enchiladas, and really wants aliens to land in his backyard. By far, their greatest creative challenge is raising four (very busy, very amazing) boys. deannaandneil.com.
