My son loved this book!!, Mar 13 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Adam and the Magic Marble: A Magical Adventure (Paperback)
My 11 year old son loved this book. In fact, when asked to do a book report for school on a fantasy book, he picked this. I think that he could really empathize with the characters. Having TS he knew exactly how those children felt. He laughed through the whole book and I remember how it made my heart lighten to hear that hearty laugh. I'm sure there are quite a few bullies that he would like to turn into frogs, also. I hope this author decides to write another book......I know one person who would be sure to scoop it up!!!

Excellent Children's Book for Disabled Children, April 11 2000
By Patty Pheil MSW - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Adam and the Magic Marble: A Magical Adventure (Paperback)
A delightful adventure book about 3 boys. One has cerebral palsy and the other two have Tourette syndrome. They find a magic marble with magic powers and accidentally it becomes aimed at the bullies. I recommend this book to any child who has a disorder that makes them feel different from their peers.

Fun to read, good message, at last, heroes with handicaps!, Oct 11 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Adam and the Magic Marble: A Magical Adventure (Paperback)
The boys in our class thought the story was great - the girls thought the frogs were gross but still liked the story. And they all thought the belching was funny! The only negative comment was that there wasn't more books to read about the characters to learn more of their adventures. Write another one of these funny books!
