Praise for Stealing the Sword:
Part of Scholastic's early chapter book series Branches, this title
is designed to be easy-to-read and features a high-interest plot to
help readers make the transition from picture books to longer
chapter books. The characters are likeable and the story has lots
of action... -- School Library Journal

surprise spark after another, all coming together at the end for a
breathtaking finale. -- School Library Journal, starred
review

* A fresh twist on the familiar themes of middle-grade family and
school dynamics. -- Booklist, starred review
