Praise for First Valentine

Praise for First Broom:

"The storyline is very much in the spirit of a child learning to ride a bike for the first time; there are struggles and frustrations at first, but ultimately the young witch is exuberant as she successfully takes off... Vibrant illustrations and a relatable message." --Kirkus Reviews
