Written by best-selling, award-winning authors, Orca Currents have become classroom favorites. With compelling mysteries, humor, adventure and contemporary themes, Orca Currents offer something for every kind of reader, particularly the reluctant reader.
"The goal of [Orca books] is to encourage frustrated middlers and teens to read, and from my perspective, it is working. Teachers love the books as well, but the students will prove their value through a rapidly growing number of circulations ... Any librarian who sees the light in a student's eye when she says she read her Orca book in one day cannot resist immediately calling his or her favorite vendor and making sure that, in September, there are plenty of Orca books on the shelf."
-- Bruce Duboff, librarian in Pennsauken, NJ, on the Middler Books and More blog
