Gryphons Aren't So Great

32 pp. | Roaring Brook/First Second | September, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59643-652-7 $14.99
(4) K-3 Adventures in Cartooning Jr. series. A knight (Sleepless Knight) wants to fly, and he leaves his loyal horse, Edward, behind to go on an adventure with a gryphon. This comic book is silly, short, and easy to read; the illustrations, with simple shapes and coloring, are engaging. The story itself, however, feels more scattered than other installments. Endpapers contain instructions on drawing the characters.
