Praise and Reviews

"Frances Ruiz has crafted a delightful little story here, mixing elements of Harry Potter and Anne McCaffrey with a batch of likeable characters in an imaginative fairyland...Ruiz’s writing carries the story along with a gentle simplicity that is both charming and addictive...Long after I closed the book, I could feel my imagination humming with golden fairy wings and underwater castles." --Erin Stropes, Developmental Editor, Canada
