A middle grade graphic novel about learning to make new friends and Dungeons and Dragons, from my favorite Molly Knox Ostertag. I especially appreciated the way the D&D games were included in this; they were illustrated like their own storytlines, which just added to the overall story. Plus, we get little character cards for each new character introduced, whether or not they play D&D. It's just such a fun concept, from start to finish.
There are a lot of middle grade readers who will absolutely love this, there's so much they will be able to relate to. Can't wait to recommend it to avid graphic novel readers at work.
