Published Reviews

"The characters are a fanciful sort. The script is full of the kinds of jokes children go crazy for [...], but will also appeal to adults."

Casey Gillis, The News & Advance, (Virginia)

"This story is a lot of fun. Ultimately, it talks about the importance of family and friends, and being comfortable with who you are and where you are."
