Hearing from My Readers

I was honored by this tribute from Anita Silvey, in which she mentions a few of my titles but particularly focuses on On My Honor.I was also delighted by the comment that reader (and presumed former educator) Char Sidell added below—it’s so helpful for me to know how my books are being used in actual classrooms:“Again you highlight a favorite book of mine! I often gave it to my middle elementary children who were sometimes considered weaker readers. The story gets them right from the beginning when Joel is confronted with a decision he doesn’t want to make and asks his Dad, thinking and hoping his Dad will say ‘No’. When his Dad doesn’t, the tension begins to grow. Realistic and true to the heart, Bauer brings the reader into the conflict where they, too, must decide what is the right thing to do. Thanks for highlighting this ‘winner’!”
