Reviews

"A reader reported that her 5-year-old child suffers from high-functioning autism. This is the first time he has read a book in its entirety and read 5 titles at a time. Our editor felt sincerely happy. Thank you very much for your creativity and work. Somewhere in the world, there is a child who is happy because of reading your series. It is a very remarkable achievement." – (Note to the author from her Chinese publisher: Beijing Yutian Hanfeng Book Co., Ltd)
