"Mr. Brown's slides and presentation [on 'The Wonders and Perils of Dolphins'] addressed relevant environmental concerns as he gave 'The Dolphins' View' of contemporary issues. Blending real science with a fictional point of view, his presentation was both educational and entertaining. It held the interest of all the students in attendance."

"All three of my children attended your workshop and came away with more knowledge than when they went in. They enjoyed your stories the most - and the fun facts about the dolphins (like brain size, etc.) I could tell your talk was more catered for Sierra club individuals. But I'm sure the more times you work with the kids, the more and more fascinating your talk will become. I hope we'll see you again at the club/camp."

"I am into book 2 now. I have to say that I am loving the story. Book one was beautiful and beautifully written too. The way it's presented really makes it seem possible to see the world from the dolphins' point of view. I love the facts too - lots of little things I never knew. Learning was nver so much fun! I really can't wait to finish the series."

"After finishing the trilogy...."I've absolutely loved reading your books. The writing is style is extremely accessible, making this a pleasurable read for all ages. It is full of fascinating dolphin facts and some saddening and eye-opening figures about how badly humans treat them and their environment However, the story is full of fun and made me laugh a lot. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and anyone who has a love for dolphins will be moved by the story and motivated to help dolphins and the environment they live in. Thank you for a pleasurable and enlightening reading experience."

"Writing under the pen name of Mookeeo, the author writes with creative originality, engaging imagination, and an undeniable story-teller's skill, while weaving complex elements dealing with animal rights and evirnonmental awareness issues into this outstanding entertaining trilogy."

"I just finished the first book of The Dolphin's View, and I'm terribly impressed. You are quite a writer. Even though some of the terminology was foreign to me, it didn't matter, as everything fell into place and was understood. I'm impressed at all the research you've done and the obvious affection you have for Dolphins. And the transformation reminded me of many an acid trip I took in the '70's. You certainly struck a cord of recognition within me. I'm looking forward to starting book 2. Thanks for a wonderful adventure."

"Thanks for a wonderful READ...I just finished your series. What an imagination you have! How wonderfully you made the three dolphins have human characteristics. Quite a feat. I fell in love with them.

"The other thing I marvel at: you never use your name as author in any of the three books. Mookeeo talks about his 'writer' but doesn't mention your name. That takes dedication and humility. I'm impressed. Every other writer I know, especially the ones who are published, and moi included, wants to proclaim their names, authorship on their literary work. Congratulations on three wonderful books."

"I really liked books 2 & 3. With the finmen in action and visiting all parts of the country, there was suspense, fun, and great mental pictures of all the sites they visited."
