“The Singing Tree cannot be put down; it is immediately engaging. This is a first-rate work, witty and observant and with a central character one can’t help but believe in and care about, a work that is genuinely of and for the Imagination. It is an ecological story, a coming-of-age story, a time-travel story, a philosophical story . . . And it stays with me into sleep, during sleep, on waking up, it is still unfolding . . ."
— Professor Jane Hipolito, California State University, Fullerton (from her review of the 2nd edition); founding member of the Section for the Literary Arts and Humanities in North America

"The Singing Tree is one of those rare novels that draw you into an imaginative world whose ways you find you already secretly know."
— Fred Dennehy, from his review in the magzaine Being Human
