What Teachers are Saying about HIP Books

...the books ... are great. I will definitely recommend [HIP Books] to schools when they are looking for low level, high interest text for their gr. 5-8 students! I love that there is very little questionable language, and the topics, although exciting, are not inappropriate for 10-14 year olds.
