Morty At Your School

What teachers have said about The Purloined Boy -

“My students and I were immediately enthralled with the story! Right away we were hooked and wanted to know what would happen next. Not only did we deeply lose ourselves in the journey of Trevor, but The Purloined Boy had characters that we couldn’t help but cheer for as they bravely fought for justice and for friendship. This book was wonderful! We’re looking forward to reading the next book, too, to learn more about Zephyr.” Tammy Ekstrom, Grade 6 Language Arts Teacher, H. W. Porter School, Columbia, CT

“I recommend The Purloined Boy to anyone who enjoys action and suspense in a fantasy novel. It’s not just for those experiencing puberty. Many of my adult friends with more developed lobes also find the novel exhilarating! Way to go Morty! I can’t wait to read the second in the series.” Mark Waller, teacher, Trinity Christian School, Windsor, CT

“In all my years of teaching reading to sixth graders, my students have never been more excited about reading a book than they have been reading The Purloined Boy.  The vocabulary is rich, the dialogue is realistic, the depth of the story allows teachers to discuss the book on several levels and introduce such topics as foreshadowing, literary style, figurative language and symbolism.  A must read for all middle schoolers and adults!”  Bill Cherniske, 6th grade reading teacher, Captain Nathan Hale Middle School, Coventry, CT
