“I can already give you feedback on the "Urban Underground" series, as I keep replacing these books each cycle—they "disappear" when the cadets graduate. My favorite comments from them are: "I've never read a whole book before" and "Can you hook me up with another book like this one?" Even the

artwork and pictures on the covers draw the students in.”

—Teacher, At-Risk Facility, California
