Dual Review Just for You …. And you and you and you ….

Nat Enough V03: Absolutely Nat by Maria Scrivan

Sunny Makes a Splash Volume 4 by Jennifer L. Holm

October 12, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

In Maria Scrivan’s books, her plucky main character, Nat, gets up to lots of everyday, growing up issues. This time, Nat’s adventures continue at summer camp in Nat Enough V03: Absolutely Nat. And while things do not go horribly wrong, there are bumps in the road for her. She learns this time that fear is okay to have, if you do not let it stop you. This, along with friendship issues, funny camp adventures and some interesting confessions, make up a fun new story by […]

Two Tickets to Paradise and a bottle for rumrunners

Turtle in Paradise: The Graphic Novel by Jennifer L. Holm

April 5, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Turtle in Paradise: The Graphic Novel is based on Jennifer L. Holm’s novel of the same name. We follow a spunky girl named Turtle as she comes of age in the late 1930’s when sent to live with family she has never met in Key West. The town her mother and aunt grew up in still has cousins, old friends, and Turtles not-so-dead grandmother still there. Turtle has been forced to be an adult before her time as her mom has her head in the […]

Swing It, Sunny by Jennifer L. Holm

February 26, 2020 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I read the Jennifer L. Holm and Matthew Holm Sunny series of graphic novels out of order. The good thing for the adult reader is that they should be able to pick the story up regardless of where you start. However, for the aimed audience of ages 10 to 14 (maybe ages 8/9 for the stronger reader as there is some context that might be a bit “much” for the sensitive reader) it probably is best to read them in order. Therefore, first up is […]

Especially when it’s your turn to roll the 20-sided die.

Sunny Rolls the Dice by Jennifer L. Holm

October 4, 2019 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

It does not matter when you go to middle school: in the late 1970s like Sunny does in Sunny Rolls the Dice by sister and brother team Jennifer L. Holm (author) and Matthew Holm (illustrator); or in the late 1980s (like I did) or now: it stinks. I mean ostrich egg sized stink. Trying to get groovy points can be hard when you rather play Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) then get Gloria Vanderbilt jeans. Sunny is just trying to learn the rules to survive middle […]
