Click on Middle Grade to hear my editor, David Levithan, talk about THE SECRET TREE. "A captivating story about the mysteries of summertime and friendship."
-Rebecca Stead, author of WHEN YOU REACH ME "The intimate neighborhood setting—with its mysteries, superstitions, and traditions—the authenticity of Minty’s voice, and her worries about the transitioning nature of her life and friendships give Standiford’s story a richness that will stay with readers."
-*Starred review, Publishers Weekly A Junior Library Guild Selection |
"a delightful tale . . . Standiford makes reading about Baltimore high society and the flawed, pampered, but likable Sullivans feel like a wickedly guilty pleasure."
*Starred review, Publishers Weekly " . . . has all the makings of a cult hit . . ."
*Starred Review, Kirkus To find out more about the places, songs, and movies mentioned in HOW TO SAY GOODBYE IN ROBOT, go to the Mystery Page
