"The book really shines in its development of Morgan as a kid still figuring himself out in the context of a new relationship, and in its never-missing-a beat humor . . . Fans will be set-up for more antics from Morgan and Lewis in the series' future installments." --BCCB "Young fans of the Magic Tree House mysteries will warm to Morgan and Lewis and eagerly await the next installment of their antics." --Booklist "With an authentic, zany splash of fourth-grade humor, perspective, and imagination, this inaugural series title targets boys and will captivate elementary readers." --School Library Journal "This book is the first of a series, and the seeds of its sequel are firmly sown, the alien's identity barely solved when a sasquatch turns up. It's all funny and sweet and never too clever." --The Horn Book "In this big-hearted, fast-paced, and deadpan first book in the Sasquatch and Aliens series, Harper (the Just Grace books) introduces a pair of nine-year-old boys who are propelled into an adventure that may or may not involve otherworldly creatures." --Publishers Weekly "... a genius pairing of fiction and nonfiction." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review on Henry's Heart "The whimsically crafted tale features not only a pleasingly goofy cartoon cast but also some very clever misdirection in the 'love story' episode, which is certain to elicit groans and giggles." --BCCB on Henry's Heart "Harper offers up a heroic heart that looks a lot like the real thing 'without the eyes and mouth, of course, ' and he's an immensely appealing figure, ideal for teaching readers about this important organ." --Publishers Weekly on Henry's Heart "This clever book is an excellent choice for story hours and primary-grade classrooms." --School Library Journal on Henry's Heart "Harper's journal-like blending of short chapters with humorous titles, comedic drawings, and lists succeeds into great effect." --Publishers Weekly on Henry's Heart
