(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Jerel Dye. Color by Laurel Lynn Leake and Alex Campbell. In a magical world populated with anthropomorphized "hogfolk," plucky pig Lily Leanchops builds the flying machine that her father, renowned professor Hercules Fatchops, could not and sneaks into the fray against marauding warthogs. Beautifully illustrated in full color and skillfully paced, this graphic novel incorporates common steampunk tropes in its inventive world-building and works a large cast of characters into its complex narrative.
