Me and Kaeti Vandorn

Friends in the Dark (I Like to Read Comics) by Kaeti Vandorn

Wiggler's Big Joke (I Like to Read Comics) by Kaeti Vandorn

September 4, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

When you read as much as I do, things can start to look and feel similar; especially with children’s books. Usually I just think, “That reminds me of something” but try not to dwell too much on it, otherwise I’ll be as nutty as people think I am!  And when I tried two online reader copies recently they seemed familiar but honestly didn’t raise any alarms (mostly because the familiar was more the age levels and less the look or story). Only when I was […]

To Market to find a present for Mama Cat

Market Day (I Like to Read Comics) by Miranda Harmon

July 27, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I was looking at the online reader copies I have available to me, and up popped Market Day (I Like to Read Comics).

Now either I missed it or the main characters are from another story, bit I never saw the names of the three main characters, but the publisher’s content gives […]

Two beginner reads your your beginner reader

Mossy and Tweed: Double Trouble (I Like to Read Comics) by Mirka Hokkanen

The Lost Mitten (I Like to Read Comics)  by Jannie Ho

July 11, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

A while back I saved the online link to Mossy and Tweed: Double Trouble (I Like to Read Comics) by Mirka Hokkanen. Then I needed a quick read at lunch recently. I found my saved link and read a cute story about the “new unicorn in town” who is “better and flashier” and all that jazz. Of course, in the end the Old Wise Unicorn needs to save the day and the two Unicorns become friends. The adult reader will see that Old Wise Unicorn is not so […]
