Praise for Pria Dee's book Billy makes Cookies "Dee’s eventful tale depicts how well-intentioned childhood curiosity can lead to chaotic, sometimes comical misadventures. The silly scenes here will amuse young readers familiar with messy situations of their own. Displaying bright, engaging colors, Perko’s illustrations creatively mirror the hectic events. Details like puffs of white flour dust and rubber ducks bobbing in water are fun touches. An enjoyable and relatable tale of childhood mishaps" - "Kirkus Reviews" Praise for Balu Saves the day "This is a cute story giving a small glimpse into Indian culture. Having lived overseas I appreciate the work the author has done to add authenticity to her story by sharing her personal experiences. The illustrations are spot on and engaging. " -Cindy Davis This enjoyable, upbeat tale instead depicts an independent boy whose hard work and concern for his family are rewarded by an understanding community. -"Kirkus reviews" Praise for The Monster Did IT "Overall, this was a cute, short story that I think will be widely enjoyed by children" -Meredith Lindsey less
