| "...Children everywhere are going to read this book and wish they, too, could find a magical elevator." Amey S Tippett; Author of Alison's Journey |
| "There was a time in our lives when magic . . .real magic . . .truly existed for us. When things were unexplainable and nothing was too fantastic to be true, we had only to dream it for it to become reality. Johnny and Joey transported me back to those carefree, adventurous days, and I gladly stepped into the magic elevator with them. Come along if you dare, you won't be sorry, but hold on tight, and don't touch the red button!" Bill Wilbur; Author of Saragosa |
| "Johnny and Joey's magic elevator takes them to lands where castles are made of chocolate, animals talk, and myths come alive. Pol McShane's warmth comes through in this book and in his characters. I laughed out loud at the gangster hummingbird, and I hope he shows up in other books!" Amy Dolejs; |
| "What an adventure it was, not only for me but for my three year-old niece as well. It was a delight to watch her face light up, watch her smile as I read the book to her. Watching her hanging on every word is a moment I will not soon forget. To hear her say, "Read more book" brought a smile to my face as big as hers . . ." Rob Farr; Author of Sleep Before Death |

The boys' adventures take them to places where the animals talk, people turn into birds and fly away, and anything you can imagine can come true. Johnny & Joey's magic elevator is sure to be a hit with children of all ages. I can't wait to see where the elevator will take them next." Paula Urso; Author of Banyan-Keeper of the Trees |

| "Before J.K. Rowling's Harry and the burgeoning Manga characters being mass-produced by the Japanese, children's stories were sweet tales of non-violent adventure wherein good always triumphed, and everyone lived happily ever after. These were stories children could drift into pleasant dreams about, and think of the characters as friends. Thankfully, there are still gifted storytellers providing such wholesome reading material. With The Magic Elevator-The Adventures of Johnny & Joey, Pol McShane has provided an excellent story time adventure that will surely win the hearts of children and parents everywhere." R. deVoll Fisher; Book reviewer and author of Caleb's Branch |

| This is a book that children will love, and if you can remember what it is like to be a child, living in your own imagination, then you will love this book too. It has everything to capture a child's imagination: talking animals, monsters, dinosaurs, and fabulous mythological creatures. I even has an adorable family pet, Choco, a chocolate brown, Labrador retriever puppy. Children will be held spellbound as ten-year-old Joey and his nine-year-old brother, Johnny, discover a magic elevator in the woods in their own backyard . . . Shelagh Watkins; |
