Reviews

Cornias bright, expressive, animation-inspired art in this Italian-import graphic novel is the main attraction of this series opener * Kirkus Reviews *
Italian author Salati (Disney Hamlet, Starring Donald Duck) tells an endearing tale that explores the meaning of freedom and familial bonds * Kirkus Reviews *
This is worth purchasing for the setting alone those mountains! Id be glad to go even if I had to be in a cage. This is a sweet story, and mirrors how I think my dog would feel if taken to the mountains. This will be wildly popular in middle schools where graphic novels circulate well. * Karen Yingling, Librarian *
