The characters say funny stuff like "Ahhh, there's a werewolf after me." Eating ice cream with a werewolf isn't any fun! The boy reminds me of my cousin, Webster. Whatever you do, don't eat ice cream with a werewolf!!

Sometimes you love being the only one who knows about something great. You want to hoard it, love it, and protect it from the crowds. Books are different; you want to share books, and you want the author to be rich and big and famous, so you can say I was there first, and there'll be lots more from that author. FOR SALE ONE BROTHER is one of those books. The message is great; the drawings are funny, and the story is moving. Anyone who can get their hands on a copy should do it, and hoard it, protect it and cherish it. You've got a classic! WHY IS IT OUT OF PRINT!

I bought this book for my two year old niece, Lilly and we adore it. Patti Stren has created a character in Elliot Kravitz who lives in us all. Elliot has won a place in my heart along with the Runaway Bunny and Corduroy. I hope that Lilly will still be reading Hug Me at my age. I wouldn't doubt it. Thanks Patti Stren. You have touched us.

I saw this book about seven years ago in a sale pile. I picked it up immediately just based on the title. I found a story that was amusing, touching, and true- a timeless story about unconventional relationships. I adore this story and these two characters. A must read!

A water spewing dragon is a mind twister for both an adult and a kid. I loved this children's tale and plan on sending it to the kids I know. The illustrations are wonderful. It's the kind of book you can read to a child several times in different voices --put on a show.

I've been passing this book around to "kids" of all ages! Age doesn't seem to matter because Jim Friedman has written a book that appeals to folks who are looking for something light, but with a message that the young kids can "get." The older ones enjoy being reminded of Shel Silverstein's work. With hi-tech madness all around, a water-spouting dragon who turns out to be a hero refreshes and uplifts. As a read-aloud book, it's a nice one to read at bedtime - better to have pleasant dreams.Thanks Jim!

Each holiday season I choose a book to read aloud at several of our local public libraries. This year I chose The Mysterious Misadventures of Foy Rin Jin because I found the story both touching and funny--an unusual combination. Children, parents and librarians were all very enthusiastic about this book, and I got a tremendous reception! I loved reading it aloud because of its wonderful use of language. I heartily recommend it.

This book was totally good i couldnt put it down i even faked sick to finish it i read it in a day and you could to this book totally get to the point of where teens and the weigh problems are. I think that anyone should pick up a copy now

This book really addresses a concept that hits home for many teenaged girls. I strongly recommend that every adolescent girl read it.
