— Review by Amazon Customer, 5 out of 5 stars, "Great magazine for kids and parents"
“Story Monsters Ink is a great magazine for kids, teens, and parents alike! They offer great insightful articles in the world of literacy and publishing! When I first stumbled upon the magazine I knew I had to share it with the schools and librarians I work with here in Canada! Great for a wide range of ages, Story Monsters Ink is a great magazine to keep around school libraries! The magazine offers great in depth interviews with high profile figures and is a great tool for engaging and educating students! I really enjoy the reading lists and book reviews and really has something to offer for everyone, even reluctant readers! I was fortunate enough to have the chance to work with the people behind Story Monsters Ink and they are just as lovely as their magazine!”— Review by Amazon Customer, 5 out of 5 stars, “Story Monsters is a great magazine for kids”
“Story Monsters Ink is the most wonderful magazine for readers of all ages! They highlight incredible people in the writing community, and advertise the newest up and coming books that we'll all want to read! Every page is in full color, which is warm and welcoming and makes the experience so enjoyable! I would definitely recommend ordering a subscription! And order a subscription for your child's school as well!”— Review by Amazon Customer, 5 out of 5 stars, “Story Monsters Ink is Marvelous!”
“Love Story Monsters. It filled with the latest books and products that will encourage any child to have fun while they learn. Interesting articles that will keep anyone plugged-in and current in what is around for your child. Great resource!!”— Carole P. Roman, award-winning children's author
“With each month I'm more impressed with the content of this magazine. It always has something of interest for educators, for parents, and for children in each issue. I find that it does a great job of balancing inspirational messaging with useful information. Great subscription.”— Review by Amazon Customer, 5 out of 5 stars, “Great subscription”
“The adolescent years of today’s youth are not anything like my own children’s experiences, and certainly not anything like mine! Much of what we learned about the world came from books like ‘The Hardy Boys’ or ‘Anne of Green Gables.’ Not anymore. Today, our children (and grandchildren) move around in constant communication with the world, their friends, and with a bit of luck, us! The magazines of my childhood have held little interest—until now.'Story Monsters Ink,' is geared to the interests and abilities of children of all ages—including the pre-teen through teen demographic. Best of all, it’s online and it’s FREE! Even more amazing, it appeals to parents and teachers, too! There is something for everyone. Every issue spotlights an author, athlete, celebrity, or other subjects close to the heart. It inspires youngsters to read, to learn, and to even write their own stories, which could be published in the magazine.The Maricopa County Library District, serving over 4 million people and spanning an area over 9,000 square miles, will soon be launching a new website and is proud to include a link to the latest issues of this wonderful magazine.”— Linda Goth, president, Friends of the Library, Maricopa County Library District and Robson Branch Library, Phoenix, AZ
“I’ve been working with Story Monsters since last December. I started by advertising my book, Gollywood, Here I Come!, and more recently, Nickerbacher, The Funniest Dragon. I thought the ads were above and beyond. And they allowed me to use them on my social media sites. The magazine looks so great and they get great people on the cover (who have interesting featured articles). The people involved with this company are really nice to work with and very professional. It’s truly been one of the best experiences I’ve had during this (author) journey.”– Terry John Barto, author of Gollywood, Here I Come and Nickerbacher, The Funniest Dragon
“Story Monsters Ink is a perfect tool for parents, guardians, and teachers everywhere. What we feed our children today will impact their health and well-being in the future. It is also true with what we let them feed their minds upon. Working parents don’t have the time to peruse the vast literary market and sample its goods. It’s hard to know where each storyline leads from its title or short description on the cover. Story Monster Ink provides you with a wide variety of stories, authors, and their purposes, building awareness and confidence in your reading choices. Books are read, content evaluated by children and adults alike, and helpful insights and interests are FREELY provided to those seeking to satisfy a solid, healthy, literary diet. Thank you, Story Monsters Ink!”– Darleen Wohlfeil, author of Swiss Cheese Adventures and A Whirlwind of Discovery
“Our project is about Autism awareness and focusing on what they can do instead of what they can’t, which is something you hear all the time as a parent. I really like what you do at Story Monsters and doing research, this was the only award program I really wanted to get involved with. I really do like and appreciate what you do for authors. My daughter was so happy when her award package came. She was so proud and wears her t-shirt to bed. Thank you for that.”– Susan Maggio, co-author of My Dog Holly
“I love the magazine and share it round my friends and colleagues. It has a lovely range of articles and informative pieces....”– J.R. Poulter, multi-award winning children's and education author, and under the pen name, J.R. McRae, young adult books, literary fiction, and poetry
“When I got your email which informed that you decided to show Chae’s writing, I almost got fainted with surprise. Ha ha ha. And I immediately informed to Chae’s mom. And she said Chae cried with excitement. I really appreciate that you gave Chae this great opportunity. She will love to study English. As I wrote you before, I will continue sending our kids’ writings, and I hope you like them. Have a nice day!”– Hee Cheol Park, school teacher, Chungnam, Korea
