"Francis Poletti writes books for children, but her stories are for everyone. They’re stories about women in history who were the first to achieve something, and what they had to battle against at that time, and how they preserved and pushed through and ended up achieving their dreams. “The Girl Who Ran,” is about a young heroine who is told that women can’t run, that running is against the rules, but she does it anyway."

"Anything by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle featuring Sherlock Holmes. Many people have enjoyed the adventures of Holmes and Watson in films and on the small screen. My guess would be that far fewer have actually read the stories from which they’re taken. Sherlock and Dr. John aren’t cozy, tweedy, oddball caricatures. They’re tough guys—resolute, brilliant and action-oriented. And if you’ve got lots of reading time on your hands, we’re talking LOTS of stories."
