Editorial Reviews
To instill a healthy sense of self and empowerment especially in young girls along with improving language and reading skills, there is nothing like this charming series. The characters radiate genuine concern for each other and the environment, and the political correctness factor is not annoyingly obsessive, just underlying.
— The Midwest Book Review
[Bernadette] is remarkable, yet her experience of frustration and her apprehension over trying new activities are relatable to younger audiences. Recommended. 3/4 stars.
