Praise for A Shirtful of Frogs:
'While this novel is classified for children, I think it has a lot of cross-over appeal... it reminds me of how The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe started.' Goodreads Reviewer
'This is the type of book that you'll find yourself going back to, reading over and over, far into the night. Really, I can't say enough good things!' - C.S. Einfeld, Author of Neverdark
