Testimonials from Teachers

"We met you at my sons school last week (Lane Green First School) and brought one of your signed books.

I can not express to you in words what a difference you'd made to my sons reading. Jack has always struggled in school with his confidence and disliked reading his books at home no matter how hard I tried, he just wasn't interested.

When I say he hasn't put your book down, that is an understatement, he takes it everywhere with him and tonight I found him reading in bed!!!!
I cant thank you enough for showing him a different side to reading. He's so excited to get home from school and read the book! It has really changed his outlook on reading and he said all books should be as good at Stevens. Thank you, from a very happy mom"
