Hereville: How Mirka Caught a Fish

141 pp. | Abrams/Amulet | November, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4197-0800-8 $17.95
(1) 4-6 Backgrounds by Adrian Wallace. Color by Jake Richmond. In this third book, Hasidic Jew Mirka and pesky six-year-old half-sister Layele go into the woods, where bizarre magic always seems to happen. The girls encounter a wishing fish with a wicked plan to gain power by kidnapping Layele. Speech bubbles wind in and out of variably sized panels, and the eventual solution involves verbal gymnastics as much as heroics and compassion.
