I was more than honored when David asked if my son, Anthony, would be a Beta reader for his Nikki Powergloves series. When he asked, I was very excited, but I wasn't sure how my son would react.
Well, he loved these books. He zipped through them in no time flat. When he was finished with the first, he could not wait for me to load the next one onto his Kindle!
Anthony said one of his most favorite things about this series is it's ability to make him laugh. He loves that he can giggle while reading the story.
And he loved the fact that Nikki could have all different types of powers just by donning gloves. I mean, how cool would that be? He kept telling me he wished he had her powers.
And the story kept him completely interested. He finished the first book in only two days. And he got upset when he couldn't start the new one right away!
What more could a mother want than for her son to WANT to read because a story is so good he doesn't want to put it down?
And I loved the character names. While my son did not get the name of the dog, Mr. Miyagi, it totally took me back to when I was young. And I loved that reference!
Such an imaginative way to incorporate super powers into a book.
He would be reading the story and when we would tell him it was time to do something, he would ask for one more minute so he could finish a chapter! How exciting.
I'm so glad Anthony got to test out this wonderful series for David. It's going to be such a great hit.
If you have elementary school children, Anthony is 8 1/2, I highly recommend that you go out and pick up this series when it is released.
