"Louis Sachar is magic to the toughest circle of critics: librarians, children's booksellers, teachers - and, most of all, kids."
- USA Today
"Sachar's touch is as deft as ever and the book is a page-turner."
- Detroit Free-Press
"Mr. Sachar's gentle but surefire approach nails down challenging issues such as racism, teen romance and drugs."
- Dallas Morning News
"Sachar has a talent for creating realistic relationships between unlikely friends. Although that's a staple device of children's literature, it often works by drawing on clichés. Sachar's characters, though, are never stereotypes, but always vividly alive."
- Los Angeles Times
" His prose is clear and relaxed, and funny in a low-key, observant way."
- New York Times
"Part of what makes Small Steps so believable and appealing is that its characters do have insecurities, and they aren't ashamed to let them show."

"Sachar is a master storyteller who creates memorable characters."
- School Library Journal

- Time Out New York Kids
