You Choose

“Fast-paced and fun to read, they are perfect for reluctant and younger readers.”

“Packed with multiple scenarios and heart pumping stunts it’s as if Australian author, George Ivanoff, is channelling his 10 year old self; he knows exactly what the reader wants.”

“These two books in particular; Trapped in the Games Grid and Super Sports Spectacular, fall firmly into the laps of the market for 8-12 year old boys. They are relevant, modern themes written in a no-fuss, fast paced style and the stories are full of action and adventure. “

“Everything about this series is designed to grab the reader by the scruff and keep them hooked until the end, from the sharp and stylish cover to the very last decision that leads them to their end…again.”

“I felt as if I was feeling the same emotions and seeing the same things. The author wrote this amazing book with delicacy. I enjoyed reading this book.”

“After I had read it through making my own ‘brave’ choices, being the hero of my own adventure (and what kid wouldn’t love that?) I found that I had to go back and read it again. And read it again I did, repeatedly. “

“What I thought was really cool about this book was that you could read it lots of times and always have a different story”.

“Ivanoff, who says he ‘drinks too much coffee and eats too much chocolate and watches too much Doctor Whp’ has revealed writing these books has been the most enjoyable venture of his career as an author so far.
It is easy to see why.”

“While primarily aimed at Middle Primary to Upper Primary these can be enjoyed by readers of all ages and certainly, if you have readers who struggle these would be a superb choice as the level of engagement and the appeal of the subject matter are perfect. “

“In my 7 year old son’s words, “This book is actually cool!”.”

“George Ivanoff invites the reader to explore an old and seriously creepy haunted house, and by teasing the reader’s natural curiosity, he leads us into an amusing and spine-tingling escapade, where we have to choose the next adventure.”

“As well as offering an engaging read, skilled teachers could use these books as models for an absorbing, integrated project that would draw in their writers, their illustrators, their mathematicians, their computer experts, and their gamers to create something new that accentuates the need for a team, encourages negotiation and compromise as well as the skills of seeing things from another perspective and looking for alternatives, and perhaps, even, the concept of empathy.”

“Following the usual formula, chapters are short and choices are many. The format is appealing with well-spaced, large clear font, short sentences, and the vocabulary is excellent – ideal to extend the less interested reader. “

“Prolific, inventive author George Ivanoff, continues to use his fast-paced, humorous and interactive style to entice readers seven years and older to dive into the magical adventure and decide their fate.”

“Ivanoff has speckled the stories with interesting characters.”

“With engaging illustrations, maps and the like they are easy to read and particularly suitable as read alouds as each ‘Pathway episode is brief (for those quick ten minute fill ins especially). Naturally the action is fast-paced as a result and this is definitely a plus for those reluctant readers who don’t like getting bogged down.”

“With sixteen separate endings the reader is spoilt for choice as they make their decisions and soon find out the consequences.”

“The appeal and importance of gaming within the formal education setting is becoming the focus of a lot of research and literature and this series provides a great foundation to actively engage and explore options.”

“Young readers who love a good adventure/action series will love reading the ‘You Choose’ series once, twice and a third time, and I can also think of several reluctant readers who will be totally engaged.”

“Love creepy mystery books? You’ll totally dig The Treasure Of Dead Man’s Cove by George Ivanoff!”

“It is wonderful to see a great new adventure series aimed at your middle grade students. And the best part—the entire story is in their hands!”
