Meet Maud the Koala by Jennifer E. Morris

by Leave a Comment

The other day, several books dropped on my foot. After a few frails and dressings were uttered, it became clear that one of those little darlings turned out to be a skinny (though pointy cornered) beginning graphic novel called Meet Maud the Koala by Jennifer E. Morris. Looking at it I asked myself, “Self. Why did you buy this book?” I answered myself, “Maybe because it has a Koala Bear?

Sorry the image is blurry, but it kinda fits the book….

I Left the House Today! by Cassandra Calin

by Leave a Comment

I Left the House Today! declares Cassandra Calin. Yet, if she leaves too often, she will only have about half of what she writes about in this delightful little book. Of course, sometimes she must be dragged out there blinking and wondering what is going on, but regardless of if she is in or out, she always has something to say. In Calin’s relatable comics of everyday issues humor, pain and reality are put into (no more than four) panels. Calin talks leg hair, parents […]
