VOYA says, “Aronson does an amazing job of combining knowledge of the sport, interviews with experts, and perfect descriptions of action to create a story that even readers with little interest in the sport will love.”
Midwest Book Review says, “Alexandra the Great is an incredible underdog story that offers a glimpse into the demanding world of thoroughbred horse racing, and is highly recommended not only for young adults and high school library collections, but also for horse lovers of all ages.”
