‘I am in year 6 at Riverhead School and I absolutely LOVE Jon Tucker’s ‘Those Kids’ book series. His books are easy-going reading, with intriguing plot ideas and fun, unique, detailed, characters. They are wonderful, and they keep me so entertained! In fact, I think I have read each of them at least 5 times!
‘I always go to the book store to see what is coming out of his next. My favourite characters in the series are Jess, Tania, Fin, Jake and Zac. You may have realised that those are most of the characters in his books, but that is because they are so good that you never want to put the book down! I also especially love that Jon Tucker’s books are based around New Zealand and Australia’s landmarks, and how the environmental impact of our actions are essential to the plot.’ ~ May Kelly (Riverhead School, Auckland, NZ)
‘Those Seal Rock Kids takes the reader on another journey exploring cultural, conservation and maritime themes. Once begun, the reader becomes immersed in the kids latest adventure and you will experience their fun, frustration, feelings of injustice and happiness, too. Jon is a master story-teller and the books educate and inspire; leaving you to wonder what “Those Kids” will get up to next.’ ~ Julie Porter, Hobart
