“Hockey Agony
is a great lessoned learned for kids, really of all ages. I love the
illustrations and love the message.”
~ Debra
Beck, Empowered Teens and Parents ~ www.empoweredteensandparents.com
“Hockey. What
can be more exciting than that? And the agony starts right away. Larry’s leg is
broken and he can’t play. Will he get a chance to join in the game? Not if
Peter shows off his fast skate moves when he takes over Larry’s position. And
what about Coach Brennan? Is he on Larry’s side…or against him? The action is
fast-paced. The drama is real. Every reader will relate. Author Donna M.
McDine’s new chapbook for tweens, Hockey
Agony, is sure to deliver. Just in time to provide a great read for boys
and hockey fans everywhere! ”

“Danger.
Hardship. Cannon blasts. And whips. Stolen violently into service as a boy who
delivers powder to the cannons during a battle, young Tommy never sees his
parents again. What adventures await him? Donna M. McDine’s book, Powder Monkey, moves quickly through
tense action scenes to portray realistic life during this dangerous era on the
high seas.”

“The
saga of an age gone by, Donna McDine’s Powder Monkey, ably captures the essence
of what some young boys endured as impressed sailors. With pathos and honesty,
this historically accurate account of Tommy Kitt’s struggle to stay alive at
sea, is a testimony to the author’s prowess as a storyteller.”
