"The kids just wouldn't let me put it down! It wasn't tremendously long but my throat was getting a bit sore. It was just perfect for her. At 2nd grade, she's ready for chapter books but not quite ready to do them herself and this one was fun to read together!" Regina E. Hott "Gina ~ Hott Books", October 10th, 2011
4.0 out of 5 stars
"Looking for Love on Mongo Tongo is a lighthearted, amusing, fast-paced adventure that will thrill young readers. Highly recommended."
CM Magazine, June 4th, 2010

"This mad-cap tale is a pleasure to read and is especially good for children who are starting to read chapter books. The book is beautifully illustrated and has a very imaginative plot line with barrels of laughs."
