Though his friends warn him to stay home, Billy the Goat takes a voyage to find treasure. Along the way, he is challenged by monsters of Greek mythology.
Bradley's big, bubbly cartoon art suits the silly adventure story, which, though slight, serves as a convenient way to introduce common comic-book elements, like speech balloons and motion lines, all of which are explained in a glossary. But the real appeal for novice comic-book readers is the goofy tale of heroic derring-do.-- "Booklist Online"
