Loukoumi And The Schoolyard Bully featured in Parents Magazine Books.
Loukoumi and her friends are simple, likeable characters with appeal to children of many ages. The language is straightforward, easy for a preschooler to understand, and great for beginning readers to read aloud. After I read the book to my 3-year-old son, he shouted a child's most approving words: Read it again!
