It's a great book. It is my favorite bike book I have ever read. I think it's cool they do bunny hops and other tricks. I want to go to joyride now! I'd give it 5 stars and it's an exciting book to read! -Margo, 8

Lindsay is obsessed with superheroes and wants to become one someday. She was so excited for summer vacation so she can practice her superhero tricks everyday. Unfortunately, Lindsay's parents tell her that she has to spend the summer away with her older cousin Phoebe. Lindsay believes this to be terrible news, but little does she know Phoebe is going introduce her to a new world of adventure on two wheels. Molly Hurford creates an awesome story about a girl who starts out shy but gains confidence and new friends while learning to Shred. This book is truly a "Joy Ride". -Riley, 10

Riley is a good reader but not an obsessive reader. We make her read at least 30 mins every night. She's read Harry Potter etc but rarely reads for more than an hour at a time. Well she started Shred Girls tonight and hasn't put it down. She's on chapter 14 and just looked up and said "I sure hope she writes a second book". So you get a second Thank You from me and if you don't have a second book coming you better get busy. -Tom (Riley's dad)

Lindsay's Joyride was very inspiring and definitely a fun read. It made me want to go back to Joyride 150 (which is one of my favorite places), hop on my bike, and try something new. I think all girls should read it, rider or not, because it really shows that riding is all about fun. You don't have to be super good or competitive. All you need is the willingness to have fun and try something new. Molly's book portrays that message clearly and in an interesting way. I love riding my bike and I loved reading Lindsay's Joyride. -Jett, 12

When I was younger and first getting into cycling, I was a total bibliophile. I would bring books to every ride and race and couldn't wait until I got off the bike so that I could get back into reading. I loved being able to pretend I was the heroine in some epic plot, a lot like how Lindsey started out in the book. Shred Girls is so different, because it shows that YOU are the hero, not some character in a book. I absolutely loved how much it inspired the reader to be their own hero, and shows that you don't need to be in a book or comic to be one. Even when reading this novel at 16, after nearly 5 years of cycling, Shred Girls has inspired me on and off the bike. Molly Hurford's ability to creative such an intriguing plot, intricate characters, and inspirational message all in one book is amazing, and a feat few have achieved so well. -Lily, 16

I like this book because she does a can can and a lot of cool tricks.- Nahsirza aged 10

I love this book because its a book that my kids look forward to reading everyday and it helps me, the mom, understand what all the terminology around BMXing is. I get to be a part of what they love to do. IT EVEN HAS A GLOSSARY!! We can't wait for BOOK 2! As a teacher, I love that this book reaches out to all genders of children and helps them get exposed to a sport they may not know. -Nanci Streit
