Kirkus Reviews says Alligators Overhead is a “swampy middle-grade story full of humor, hauntings, quirky characters and a mystery that continues to develop to the very end.” http://tinyurl.com/k85hz57
Kirkus Reviews says, “The folksy diction and lyrical, verb-heavy storytelling will leave readers turning the pages all the way to the end, where big surprises await and the real villains are revealed.” http://tinyurl.com/k85hz57
Alligators, witches and a spooky mansion aren’t your average neighbors. . . unless you live at the edge of the Ornofree swamp in the backwater town of Hadleyville. http://tinyurl.com/k85hz57
