A young Molly (similar to a fairy) girl and her pet Korgi (who has magical abilities) live in alittle village full of Mollies and Korgis in the woods and have adventures. The only words are in the introduction and the cast of characters, the graphic novel is pencil illustration only. The detailed, beautiful illustrations will appeal to fantasy lovers and the dog is depicted perfectly--you can tell the author owns two himself. I would recommend this book to elementary age girls, and it's a wonderful teaching tool for kids, even older ones, who have difficulty interacting with a text. This is a good book to have a child narrate aloud, especially since there are so many tiny details to observe. The plot was very simple, and I'm hoping for a few more twists in the coming volumes, though I love that the Korgi discovers he can breathe fire!

Korgi: Sprouting Wings is a short whimsical introduction to the world of Korgi Hollow. The story is told entirely in beautiful ball-point pen illustration that helps showcase the enchanted, whimsical and ugly natures of the world that Christian Slade has created.
If you are a fan of whimsical Corgis or masterful pen artistry, this is a short fun adventure for you.

Cute, but mostly just sketches of corgis, not so strong on plot.

I'm just going to say it, this is the cutest comic I have ever encountered, and I don't think anything will top it.
Filled with myth and magic, KORGI is a story about a girl and her dog told entirely without words. With the exception of a brief into, the story of Ivy and Sprout is shown through gorgeous black and white drawings. It's a simple story--girl leaves town and finds adventure, but that doesn't mean it's boring. Charming and lush, this is a tale that children and adults will enjoy in equal measure. Especially if they've ever loved a corgi.
