Race Cars: Read all about them! (ages 4-8).Just look at Maihack's use of color, angles and expression. I especially love Cleo's spunky, fearless character.
Maihack pulls in readers with his colorful artwork, charming heroine and plenty of action. Cleo is zapped into the future by a mysterious tablet and learns that an ancient prophecy declares that she is destined to save the galaxy from the tyrannical rule of the evil Xaius Octavian. This fun mash-up between ancient Egypt and outer space features a young Cleopatra who’s more interested in combat training than algebra lessons. Hand this to fans of Amulet and Zita the Spacegirl. One of my students' new favorite graphic novels is Cleopatra in Space: Target Practice. They draw us in, asking the reader to be much more actively involved in creating the story than a movie does. But please, please believe me that these books can really feed a child's imagination. Do your kids love graphic novels? I know many parents tear their hair out worrying that their kids will only read comic books and graphic novels.
