"...Orange Clouds Blue Sky was told from Skye's point-of-view. J. Hale Turner did a great job reflecting conflict and solutions through the eyes of a teenager. The emotions of each character were apparent and felt through the words of Skye. I highly recommend Orange Clouds Blue Sky to teenagers and their parents. I believe each would learn something of great value."

"Ms. Turner has done an awesome job in her newest release about two teenage sisters and their family. It's a heartwarming read dealing with some serious family issues, yet she manages to keep you laughing throughout the book. I truly enjoyed this story because it deals with real-life issues, and the characters are very colorful. As I read it, I felt as though I was right there with them, hearing them speak and seeing what they were doing. Ms. Turner is a wonderful storyteller. I have enjoyed all of her books and look forward to reading many more."

We Love to Cheer Our ABCs
 
"J. Hale Turner created a delightful, entertaining children's book ... Tested on groups of special needs children ... as they tuned in to a high-spirited performance.   I highly recommend this book to all children who are in the learning stage of the alphabet, and as a social activity for young children. "WE LOVE TO CHEER OUR ABCs" is educational as it builds confidence and self-esteem in young children ... This book will amaze the eyes, and astonish the heart as you watch these children sing in happiness with the ABC Cheer Babies."

"J. Hale Turner has done it again! I am an elementary Literacy Intervention Teacher and I have used this book as a read aloud to Kindergarten students. I have the students clap or use small instruments when singing the ABC cheers. The students love it!! The book, when read aloud, enables student interaction and movement. I am looking forward to more of J. Hale Turner's literature for children!"
