"Children's challenges in interaction with others are in abundance. For many, they ... can seem unbearable, but Toys 'N Tayls has taken on this challenge with The Two Tuba Switch. This is a delightful combination of book and 4 toys which when used together help a child to learn to overcome being shy. Best of all, parents and children can create their own new stories to use with the 4 toys that come in the package."

"Jill Ronsley is much more than an editor. Words connected us, and she became my confidant and writing pal. I do not live and the USA and English is not my mother tongue. On top of everything, I wrote my book in verse. Can it get any harder? But Jill was answered every query, fixed every glitch and scrutinised the book over and over again. She did all this with a big soul, caring and a smile, which is so rare. It’s good to know I have a writer’s home with her for future projects. She’s the only address for me."

  "Sometimes in life, it’s good to be lucky. When it came time for me to find an editor, I found Jill Ronsley. I got lucky. Jill is an utmost professional. On the surface, she’s a fantastic editor, handling every inquiry and request in a timely, thorough and insightful manner. But on a deeper level, a level that I’m extremely grateful for, she supported and encouraged me to improve my manuscript. Jill made my story better. Jill knows her stuff cold; She was both a guide and a resource to me; She communicated with me wonderfully; And she was cool! From making me laugh to sharing advice, she was an asset to my project from the first day. Going forward, I won't need luck to find an amazing editor, because I'll have Jill."
