I really wish there was a little more dialogue. Ages of this graphic novel is 8-12, so I don’t think adding a little more dialogue would be too much to comprehend for the kids.
I can’t wait to know what happens next 😁

The anxiety rep could've been a bit more nuanced, but I'm willing to overlook that since this is a middle grade graphic novel.
I really enjoyed the dynamic between Bea, Cad, and of course Nimm (obviously the cat must be included).
I'll be continuing the series and already own the next book. 😁
If you're a fan of T. Kingfisher's MG and YA fantasy novels, I'd recommend giving this book a try!

The world was beautiful! Love how the artist used lighting in the illustrations. There just something about the scenes with the real warm glow that feels magical.
One of my favorite quotes was: “If I let the specter of certain doom stop me, I’d never get anywhere!”
