Critics Review
Praise for BECOMING BRIANNA: “Lacing the dialogue with spirited banter and laying on the life lessons with a light touch… All ends with party time … plus a climactic hora exuberant enough to leave everyone, readers included, smiling.” - Booklist
“Readers will relate to Brianna’s attempts to manage her stress load as well as her insecurity and flaws as she works to form and maintain friendships.” - School Library Journal
Praise for JUST JAIME: “A delightful tale that navigates the precarious ebb and flow of friendship dynamics.” - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Libenson perfectly portrays the gaslighting and passive aggression that can be the hallmarks of middle-school relationships turned sour, and readers struggling with cracking of beloved friendships will find reassurance in the book’s ‘this too shall pass’ sentiment.” - Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
Praise for POSITIVELY IZZY: “Libenson captures middle-school dramas–family, friendships, crushes, stereotypes, grades, self-discovery–with candor, fast pacing, and authentic, relatable characters. Positively satisfying.” - The Horn Book
“Libenson nicely touches on classic middle-grade tropes, such as shifting friendships, crushes, and developing confidence. A poignant twist ending adds a heartening note to an already charming story.” - ALA Booklist
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: “This is middle grade fiction at its best. A fantastic debut novel with plenty of laughs and tons of heart. INVISIBLE EMMIE is unforgettable!” - Lincoln Peirce, New York Times-bestselling creator of Big Nate
“Clever, funny work by a great cartoonist. Reading INVISIBLE EMMIE sums up middle school: You laugh, you cry, you get beaned in the head with a volleyball.” - Stephanie Perkins, internationally bestselling author of Anna and the French Kiss and Lola and the Boy Next Door
