I’ve always believed that Night of the Purple Moon is a story for all ages. At the same time, the protagonists are thirteen and twelve year old—which means that it should be especially appealing to a young adult audience. It’s really great when I hear about readers under the age of twenty!

Callahan, 13, an eighth grader from Utah, read and enjoyed NOPM. He was kind enough to answer some questions about the book. Thank you, Callahan!
