“Eileen Telford is the next J. K. Rowling.” --  Margee – book acquisitions for local bookstore.

 

“Your writing, Eileen, is refreshing.  It thoroughly entertains me – and doesn't make me blush.  I like that.  I am eighty years old, an avid reader, and I still love a good story.  Yours are among the best I've ever read.”  -- Sylvia, retired teacher.

 

“I don't understand how your stories can so thoroughly entertain me as I'm reading to my kids – and cause my kids, ages twelve to two years old, to sit still with rapt interest!  I've never seen a two year old who could sit through a chapter of a book and not move, totally enraptured by a story.  You're a great writer.”  -- Janet, mother of six.

 

“I loved your version of Cinderella.  It was the best one I've ever read.  Please let me read anything  and everything you write!”  --  Beth, age twelve.

 

“I loved Gwendolyn!  It read it all the way through without stopping.  When is the sequel coming out?  You are a fantastic writer.”  -- Keyna, college professor.

 

“I read Gwendolyn, the Emerald Fairy out loud to my fifth grade class, one chapter a day.  Each day they begged for me not to quit reading.  Even the tough boys in class sat on the floor at my feet while I was reading your delightful story.  The only other  book which captured their attention the same way was Harry Potter.”  -- Miss Draper, fifth grade teacher.

 

“I just finished Trudl and Trudeliese.  I loved it!  So charming, enchanting and fresh.  I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait for the next story.  I read the story to my son and daughter, ages 7 and 5.  They were caught up in the story and loved the ending.  Because my daughter loves princess stories, I am always pleased to find stories which teach positive values and correct principles.  This story does a beautiful job of weaving some sound truth into a delightful story-line.  The plot is gripping, the characters are lovable, and the resolution is perfect.  I look forward to reading the next story.”  -- Randi, mother of two.

“The Fickle Princess Isabel was seriously the best book I've ever read in my life! I loved it!” -- Skye, ten years old.

“The Doll Princess is so fun and unique. I will never again feel the same way about llamas. Who would have thought they could bring so much humor and delight to a story?” -- J.T.

“Dear E. D. Telford: I love your books – all of them! They are so much better than anything I've read at my school library.” -- Angelica, age ten

“When I read The Princess on the Glass Hill, it made me feel like I was part of the story. I loved the description of Princess Aurelia and Nicholas riding bareback on the magnificent horse, Thunder, and the feelings of young love. You have a masterful way of telling your stories. I love them.” -- Jayleen, young adult reader.

"Cinderella with attitude! I love the way she has a firm grasp of who she is and what she wants despite her personal circumstances. Her determination and a little magic wins the day." -- James, grandfather
