Matthew Smith liked Terry Filkohazi's review of The Million Dollar Race: "I like how the kids came together in the end and did what was right.

Matthew Smith liked Marissa's review of The Million Dollar Race: "I enjoyed the quirky Falloon family. The competition between friends reminded me of the Amigo Brothers short story, and with running as a focus, I though of Ghost by Jason Reynolds. It flowed well and has some nice life lessons wrapped in."
