Girls go for the gold!
This young-adult book has now won two prestigous mystery awards (the Agatha and the Anthony) and all we can say is ... it's about time!

Author Penny Warner is an expert at writing well-crafted, entertaining mysteries, and she geared this one just right for readers of ages 8 to ...

You're there ! In the Gold Country!
Mysteries these days do a lot more than mystify. Penny Warner always give us something to learn---and ponder. Who would have thought there were two legitimate sides whether or not to have a cochlear implant to enable hearing for the deaf? The author neatly wraps this conflict into Silence is Golden. And when you read this Gold Country mystery, you simply aren't where you were. You're there. ...

Dead Body Language

Bantam, 1997

funny, entertaining and accurate
As a deaf person, I was hesitant to pick up this book because many books written about deaf individuals are inaccurate. However, this book is a very accurate portrayal of a deaf character. Not only that, Conor is a funny, gutsy and likeable character. The book ended much too soon for me and I'm off to buy her other 3 books now!

A good mystery with a protagonist with a twist.
I read mysteries as a way to relax in between all the serious writing and reading I do for science education for the Deaf community. So it was with great joy that I found these little gems by Penny Warner. She writes about a Deaf woman who runs a newspaper. Now first off, this is unheard of--pardon the pun, for a Deaf person to be perceived as having the intelligence to do something other than ...
