Full of drama and heart, this is the kind of series that can show newly independent readers the power of a good story. (Fantasy. 6-8)

ALA/Booklist

"Broach strikes just the right tone in the dialogue and narrative, giving the beetles distinct personalities and dilemmas but always returning to the interspecies friendship at the heart of the series . . .Wonderful fare for transitional readers."
