review 1: I did like this graphic novel, however I think it will be difficult to find the right audience for it. Young children will not understand the subtleties and might grow bored with it. Teens and some adults I think would be the best audience, though they might be turned off by the main characters being young children. If one were to just read the text they might not get the full scope of the story either, the pictures do a lot to enhance the tale and bring it to the reader. It is also fairly lengthy which will deter some readers. But aside from all of that, the magical events are intriguing and the bad guys creepy!
review 2: This one sort of snuck up on me. For the first 40 pages or so I was all eh, cute kids and bouncy bunny things, what's the big deal? But it w... moreas a pretty big deal, about the magic of childhood, and doing the right thing even when it's pretty tricky, and just the coolness of this mysterious little town where the story takes place. Thung builds a full and strange world, and I really enjoyed getting to know it and it's inhabitants, and following the perilous adventure to its semi-thrilling conclusion! Hooray for small towns in real life and fantasy, and for their human-and-otherwise heroes! less
