 The Troll Under Puzzlefoot Bridge
Noah Gruelle knew there was something odd about Puzlefoot Bridge. But he never expected the clues to point him to Torvald, a troll living under the bridge! A mysterious spell causes Noah to get an even more up-close view of the surprising life of a troll. Learn what happens next in this exciting graphic novel!
Trevor, the Very Best Giant
Lucas Torres is the smallest kid in his grade. But when he meets Trevor, the very best giant, Lucas realizes that his small size just might save the day. Follow the new friends as they use teamwork and discover that there is no right or wrong size. Learn more about these special friends in this graphic novel.
Even Fairies Bake Mistakes
Dill is a fairy who loves to bake. His recipes are tried-and-true. His flavors are on point. There's only one problem-everything he bakes is a disaster! Will his new friend, Ada, help Dill win the Fairyland Baking Contest? Or will Dill's latest creations turn out to be big, burned mistakes? Find out in this graphic novel!
Mermaid Midfielders
Meet Mei, a mythical mermaid midfielder on the lookout for a new teammate! She scouts Megan, a human who's got the skills on land. With a helpful magical tail (and a little practice), Megan swims onto the field. Will she become the next undersea soccer star? Find out more in this graphic novel!
Frankie and the Dragon
Frankie Marble is shy. She is afraid of heights. She is too scared to enter the school talent show. But all that changes when she meets Bandit, the dog-that-is-definitely-not-a-dragon! Read all about their adventures in this graphic novel!
Quest for the Unicorn's Horn
A taste for sweets (and for adventure) leads Michael on a fantastic quest to retrieve a unicorn horn. Will he make it out of Sweetlandia with his sugar-coated prize, or wash out in a fudgy wave of failure? Find out more in this graphic novel!
Don't go into these books thinking you will lean any mythology whatsoever about the various mythical creatures (especially as the unicorn walks on two feet, and wears a hoodie and running shoes...he's still kind of cute though), these stories aren't here to educate on the myths and legends, but rather on friendship and seeing yourself in another person and for overcoming challenges. Each book has some questions that are useful in school, and each also comes with an activity, such as making your own giant, or baking cookies. The graphics are bright and colourful, and while I thought them a little silly I have to admit I also kind of enjoyed reading them.
