"This is a great book! I love the illustrations. Katelyn Lonas is a talented young lady! I bought the book because I follow Captain Kate on Instagram. I didn't know a lot about her background, so it was fun to read. I love Bug! Katelyn has written and illustrated a great book and will inspire girls and boys to reach for their dreams. Now that I have read this book I'm giving it to my friend who is a teacher to put in her classroom. I recommend this book! It's fun and informative, it has great illustrations and it's written by a young author who is doing a fantastic job."

"Entertaining and informative. Picked it up for my niece but ended up getting hooked myself. The art is super cute, and I love how it gives brief info about each holiday. You get the fun facts without the fluff. Found out about some wild celebrations I never knew existed! Only wish it had a better way to find specific holidays, but honestly, half the fun is just flipping through and discovering new ones. Totally worth it if you're into learning about different cultures!"

"Enjoyable introduction to Marie Antoinette. This short book is perfect for young readers learning about the life and death of Marie Antoinette. Readers will be introduced to her character and influence and learn basic history of the French monarchy and the French Revolution. The illustrations are vivid and add to the allure of the book."

“From beginning to end, the pictures in this succinct biography went with the bold lettering and the bold personality of Bobby Fischer. I loved the feel and mood of the book, where the medium mixed perfectly with the message. I knew of his ingenious chess-playing skills, but through this well-told story, I got to know his personal side. He had many ups and downs, always of his own making. He was very outspoken and a person who lived on his own terms. This book kept me interested through every page.”

“Bravo to the talented young author and illustrator of the Bearific books and the story of Marie Antoinette. Her illustrations are absolutely beautiful. I was mesmerized on every page. The writing is perfect for an older child, maybe 12 and up, or a teen. Just enough information to be interesting and not lose interest. If you have a young adult looking for quick historical reads or a way to connect young people with interesting biographies, the Bearific series would be a great place to start. Definitely recomend.”

”Wonderful intro to the world’s greatest chess player. Easy to read and pleasure to look at, the story of the greatest ever chess player is sure to inspire 6-12 year olds to find out more, and, hopefully, take up the game themselves. An excellent introduction.“

“101 Holidays with Bearific is a delightful and educational journey through worldwide celebrations! Each page brims with vibrant illustrations and fascinating cultural insights, making it perfect for curious minds of all ages. Whether you're exploring for fun or learning about global traditions, this book connects us through the joy of celebration. Highly recommended for families and educators alike!”

“This is a short, easy-to-read history of Marie Antoinette. I liked the artwork. It is the perfect book for a young reader interested in history. I learned some new facts about the famous lady. Well-written style. Recommended for young audiences.”
