Review Praise for Ava the Monster Slayer: Sleepover Superheroes // Winner of the 2024 Family Choice Award! \\ // Recipient of the 5-Star Review from Readers Favorite! \\ "I thoroughly enjoyed reading Lisa Maggiores Ava the Monster Slayer: Sleepover Superheroes. Feltens beautiful illustrations capture the entire well-paced story in such a way that it felt like I was watching a fun and exciting cartoon with subtitles. Moreover, employing varied font styles and sizes added to the excitement. I appreciated Avas character arc. Initially, she tries to seem cool in front of the older girls, but by the end, she faces her fears and remains unfazed by their opinions. Along the way, she and her friends overcome their fears and fight monsters. I love how the theme of friendship is highlighted throughout this work. There are more books in the Ava the Monster Slayer series, and I am looking forward to reading all of them." --Readers Favorite, 5-star review "At their schools sleepover event, Ava and her friends must rescue their beloved stuffies after theyve been taken by a group of older girls. But that means they must enter the school hallways, rumored to be haunted with ghosts and mythical creatures!" --Toledo Parent "Whats On Our Bookshelf" "This imaginative graphic-novel style picture book keeps youngsters on the edge of their seats while showing them how to face their fears." --SoCal City Kids: The Shelfie October 2024 Book Picks Praise for Ava the Monster Slayer: Cousin Power "The tale is just a little scary, and the illustrations perfectly heighten the fear, fierceness, and love with atmospheric darkness, scary monsters, and the right amount of color to lighten things up. Ava and Sophia marshal their resources, manage their fear, and save their stuffies. Works fine as a stand-alone story." --School Library Journal "The combination of tenderness for stuffed companions and the fierce bravery required to rescue them is fun and refreshing. . . Light entertainment for kids who like drama." --Kirkus Reviews "Ava is a role model for children in that she knows her worth, and allows her experience, best instincts, and available resources to guide her through challenges, and follows through on her actions. Ava the Monster Slayer: Cousin Power succeeds on many levels and would be an engaging addition to any childs book collection." --Susan Gaspar, Windy City Reviews Praise for Ava the Monster Slayer: A Warrior Who Wears Glasses "Maggiore and Feltens treatment of this familiar story theme not only overcomes a fear of the dark but also kicks it in the head. Nicely done."--School Library Journal "A triumphant sally in the long-running war against closet and other domestic monsters, with these mildly scary monsters not slain but thoroughly routed." --Kirkus Reviews Details ISBN1510780920 Author Ross Felten Format Hardcover AU Release Date 2024-12-10 Pages 32 Publisher Skyhorse Publishing Year 2024 Illustrator Ross Felten ISBN-13 9781510780927 Imprint Sky Pony Press Place of Publication New York Country of Publication United States Illustrations Color illustrations throughout Audience Children / Juvenile Publication Date 2024-09-03 US Release Date 2024-09-03 Audience Age 3-6 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
