GOOD NEWS! School Library Journal Gives a Great Review for TWO BALLERINAS . . . AND A MOOSE!

–

There’s a sweet review for Two Ballerinas . . . And a Moose! in the upcoming edition of School Library Journal. However, I’m not supposed to share the complete review until after it is printed on August 1st.

–

I am allowed, after some bargaining with the ruthless lawyers at SLJ, to include every 7th word of the review.

Are you ready?

Here goes:

–

“and . . . join . . . Moose’s . . . Moose . . . his . . . righteous . . . and . . . under . . . their . . . dance . . . twirling . . . in . . . his . . . in . . . Smiles . . . loose . . . are . . . and . . . out . . . relatable . . . reader!”

–

Wow, right?

–

You can see why I’m so stoked. 

–

Um, not really?

–

Maybe I should have asked if I could share only adverbs and prepositions instead? Those lawyers are tough as thumb tacks!

–

Anyway, here’s a pull quote:

–

“Children will laugh their way through Moose’s antics, his silly dance shoes, and his enthusiastic attempts at twirling and spinning. Readers may recognize themselves in Moose, full of enthusiasm that outstrips his skills . . . VERDICT ­Another totally relatable winner from Preller for the early reader shelves.”
