"[about A Very Messy Inspection]': 'I thought it was very funny. I liked Annabelle best. I liked the fact that she wasn't very good at her magic and she was hopeless in her angel duties...I can't wait for the next volume!" - Evangeline Buckmaster (age 7)

"I really enjoyed reading this book...My favourite character was Annabelle because she had cockroach spray that knocked out people (except Piccolo. That's why he was special!)" - Tom St. John (age 7)
