PRAISE FOR BOOK I: KEAGHAN IN DREAMSIDE
"As someone who has spent the majority of her life working in one form or fashion with elementary aged kids, I am always on the lookout for books that this particular age group would find intriguing and keep them turning the pages. Upon finishing Keaghan in Dreamside, I realized that this was one of those types of books: a book with an engaging main character, fully imagined and realized world, and an adventure ."

"This was the cutest story, very imaginative, elaborate, and with the right dose of mystery and lesson, delivered in an easy-to-read and entertaining format. My first reaction to the book was that it was too short, I wanted it to go on for a little bit longer. But after I finished it and had the time to ponder about it, I realized that everything that needed to be said was said in the allegory and there was nothing left to complete; my wanting to read more was a testament to how much I liked the story and how eager I was to read more about these engaging characters, perhaps in another adventure."

"I found this to be a very entertaining short story for children ages seven and up. A read alone book for about grade 4 and a read with a parent for below. Nicely written, easy to comprehend for young readers and with a good moral lesson, this is a book we recommend to parents."
