"Once I started reading, I really didn't want to stop. I adored every second of this breathtaking ride and while desperate to know the ending, didn’t want the last page to come! ‘Movers’ is quite simply fabulous and a must have, must read book." -- Liz Robinson Lovereading4Kids
"If you're looking for a gentle, relaxing read, this isn't it. Movers starts with a bang (literally) and continues at record pace until the very last word." Inis, Children's Books Ireland
"I loved Movers from the first page, all the action gripped me and I struggled to put it down." -- Amy Laws, age 14, for lovereading4kids.co.uk
