5 stars Another gorgeous book in the Tea Dragon series. I cannot get enough of this world. The characters could just sit with their tea dragons, talking to each other and sipping tea and I would be here for it 100%. As always, O’Neill’s artwork is fantastic. Each page is gorgeous and relaxed. Beautiful colors,…

4 stars This graphic novel opens with such a great start. From the opening spread of the café, I was immediately drawn in. There’s so much detail and things going in, I instantly wanted to get to know the characters and how they all connected with one another. As the characters were introduced, I fell…

4 stars Another fangtastic adventure at Camp Mwhaaa-haa-ha-a-watha. I’ve read this series a bit out of order as my library no longer has the second book (rip, lost library books), so I’m reading this one before getting a copy of book 2. However, while it’s probably helpful to read them in order, each adventure is…

4 stars A fangtastically good read. Perfect for fans of My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish. This spin-off series follows Mark, Tom’s evil older brother, as he sets off for Evil Scientist Summer Camp (under the cover of Eco-Scientist Camp) with his evil vampire kitten, Fang. This book can be read without having read the original series,…

4 stars An engaging story that mixes adventure, mystery, history, and a hint of the fantastical. This was a nice bit of historical fiction geared toward young readers. Larson admits to taking a lot of liberties with the story of the disappearance, but many elements are inspired by facts and the whole thing comes together…
