Stunning art that melds art nouveau style with hyper-realistic faces. A modern undersea adventure with mermaids and coral snakes and fanciful repurposed trash balloons and a cat who enjoys surfing. Very imaginative, love that it calls back to L. Frank Baum, but that it's also grounded in a modern kid with a scurrilous cat and a forgetful grandfather. Neat! diverse middlegrade graphic novel (Vietnamese American with grandfather suffering from dementia/forgetfulness has underwater adventure/dream after a surfing accident with her sidekick cat with one good eye, Cap'n Bill) absolutely beautiful illustrations; love the flowy blouses/dresses and the rest of the siren costumes. Love the representation of minority and differently abled characters, love the strong personality of the cat. Though the main character is in middle school, this book would also be appropriate for younger kids (2nd grade or even younger, if they can read it/have it read to them, especially if they have aging grandparents) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieA été inspiré par
Trot, a Vietnamese American surfer girl, and Cap'n Bill, her cranky one-eyed cat, catch too big a wave and wipe out, sucked down into a magical underwater kingdom where an ancient deep-sea battle rages. The beautiful Sea Siren mermaids are under attack from the Serpent King and his slithery minions--and Trot and her feline become dangerously entangled in this war of tails and fins. This beautiful graphic novel was inspired by The Sea Fairies, L. Frank Baum's "underwater Wizard of Oz." It weaves Vietnamese mythology, fantastical ocean creatures, a deep-sea setting, quirky but sympathetic main characters, and fast-paced adventure into an imaginative, world-building story.-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
