Angela H. Dale writes picture books for children and for the former children who read to them. Praise for GOODBYE, HELLO, A GOING HOME TRAVEL ADVENTURE "An engaging and heartwarming depiction of a military family’s reunion.... Brisk two-beat alternately rhyming lines whisk readers along.... Repeat trips through the pages are guaranteed by the numerous details to pore over.... Armchair travelers, first-time fliers, and airport habitués will buckle up willingly for this vicarious voyage." — Kirkus Reviews "Staccato phrases by Dale convey the trip’s beats, taking readers through airport-related transit and queues, an overnight flight, and more.... Weisman’s detailed digital illustrations portray a range of travelers and situations, plus helpful employees interacting with the family, creating a work with plenty for young travelers to seek and find." — Publisher's Weekly "This book celebrates families of all types, starting with the LGBTQ+ and mixed-race family depicted, and it reminds readers that although distance can be difficult at times, love is a powerful emotion that can help you endure any long journey to be reunited with those you cherish—and that oftentimes the journey can be filled with all sorts of wonderful adventures." — Booklist "Author Angela H. Dale (Bus Stop) and artist Daniel Wiseman (When Your Llama Needs a Haircut) infuse a weighty topic with charm and joy... [and] warmly celebrate a very special, very inclusive family reunion in their welcoming picture book, Goodbye, Hello." — Shelf Awareness Praise for BUS STOP: "Simple, snowy fun with a vocabulary-building boost.... Young fans of Ezra Jack Keats’ The Snowy Day (1962) will find this an enjoyable companion book, and this title will likely see heavy rotation in libraries during the colder months of the year." — Kirkus Reviews "Hinting visually at The Snowy Day, Watkins’s spare mixed-media illustrations capture the children’s evident glee as snowflakes fill the air and smudgy white paints the sidewalks. The playful moments work hand-in-hand with Dale’s energetic poetry as the book builds to the expected but no less jubilant explanation for the missing bus." — Publishers Weekly “An adorable cast of characters, depicted with vibrancy and individuality, provides the heartbeat and through line of this action-filled A-to-Z adventure… Fans of THE SNOWY DAY and A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS will love BUS STOP.” — KidLit Spotlight
