Ellie and the Marriage List Reviews

"Ellie is well developed, and her cognitive, speech, and physical challenges are seamlessly integrated into the narrative. There's a happy ending for this relatable, spunky protagonist." Booklist


An impressively written and fun read from start to finish, "One Extra Sparkle: Ellie and the Marriage List" by author/storyteller Tricia Seabolt is an ideal pick for young readers and will prove to be a immediately welcome and enduringly popular addition to elementary school, middle school, and community library Contemporary Fiction collections. Midwest Book Review


Artistic, mischievous, and empathetic, Ellie is delightfully nuanced; Rogers illustrations readily convey her many emotions. Seabolt matter-of-factly portrays Ellies challenges, such as speech difficulties and spaghetti noodle muscles, and readers will root for her as she discovers her strengths and faces her fears. Ellies supportive family is heartening. A warm tale of family and friendship. Kirkus Reviews
