Recenzii

“May deftly combines a child’s sense of awe and freedom with an adult’s awareness of life’s stickier complexities.”

“Brookview is still buzzing about the wonderful storyteller we had for our Family Literacy Night. You have really set the bar high! It was educational and fun. Everything we wanted. Brookview is a big fan of Jim May!”

“Jim May’s picture book, The Boo Baby Girl Meets the Ghost of Mable’s Gable, is the most popular book in our school library.”
