Review Quotes




A Publishers Weekly bestselling series!Praise for The Last Firehawk #1: The Ember Stone: "The first book in this new series brings the animal fantasy genre to early chapter book readers.... The adventure is nonstop, making this an ideal choice for reluctant readers.... Detailed black-and-white illustrations blend well with the text, and will keep kids engaged.
