Reviews
of SLIDING ON RAINBOWS
"Sliding on Rainbows" is a smooth, captivating read.
I love all
the
characters in this book, especially Crystal's Dad, whose mind works
very much like Lissie's, and one of the teachers, Mrs. Roberts, who
has an invisible friend as well: Herman, the pink elephant that flies
around in the courtyard. "Sliding on Rainbows" is an adventure
with a
twist and lots of funny details. But more than that, it is a story
about being different and how to deal with it, how to embrace one's
special features instead of being ashamed of them."

A second, fun-filled sage that skillfully combines
fantasy and modern technology! Author Jeanette Cottrell again delivers a
story to be enjoyed by young and not so young alike.
This exciting adventure involved Crystal, a normal sixth grader and
her little sister, Lissie – who is not so normal. As Crystal attempts to
protect her little sister from other kids’ cruelty, she inadvertently adds
her own to the mix. Then her sister disappears. This leads Crystal and her
new found ‘ally’, Miguel, on a journey involving skateboards, purple
dragons, red rainbows, wombats and the like. Crystal learns the true meaning
of friendship and family as she searches for Lissie.
This writer has a knack for combining fantasy and modern terms in a
smooth easy to read language. This reader guarantees a past paced and fun
filled adventure meant to stretch the imagination and put a smile on any
reader’s face, young or old!
