READER REVIEWS
“I love children’s books, especially those with beautiful illustrations like this one! The pictures are scrumptious and the story is unique and charming. It’s easy to see the lessons involved and they are presented in a fun, creative way. The rhyming words are delightful and add to the fun of reading this book. It would be a great way to help children with social behaviors and problem-solving. I would have loved to have this book when I was helping children with processing, social and language skills! And, the surprise ending is sure to elicit laughs!” -KS
"Pushball is a cute book that my boys (3&5) loved! Ever since Groundhogs Day my 5 year old has been obsessed with groundhog and this book was perfect for him. They thought the groundhog was hysterical and they wanted to win like duck. The drawings are bright, fun, and match the story well. We loved this story!" -MR
"Found the book on Amazon and downloaded it to my iPad. My 7 year granddaughter read it to her 5 year old cousin. It was a delightful read with wonderful rhymes. Looking forward their next release."
