K-3Fox + Chick series.
Ruzzier delivers three stories about Fox and Chick in a volume with a picture book's trim size but plenty of graphic-novel elements (simply structured panels, dialogue balloons, sound effects) that are well suited to reading newcomers. Finely etched and textured pen, ink, and watercolor vignettes employ a subdued palette. This new entertaining odd-couple friendship could make a Frog and Toad–like impression on the picture-book and easy-reader worlds.
