Review: "Nnewts" by Doug TenNapel

If you are in need of some magic, adventure and mystery this summer, pick up a copy of Doug TenNapel's latest graphic novel series, "Nnewts." Life in Nnewtown is quiet and normal--farmers farm, shopkeepers sell, soldiers patrol, and Herk's legs still aren't strong enough for him to climb out of the family pool. As Herk's dad is on the verge of a powerful and magical discovery, evil Lizzarks are planning to invade Nnewtown, and no one is prepared. Could it be that Herk is the one to save them all? 

With fabulous artwork and exceptional creativity, fans of TenNapel's "Cardboard" will be pleased with "Nnewts," and anyone who loves a good adventure will find it in these pages. The first two volumes are out now, "Escape From the Lizzarks," and "The Rise of Herk." These books are appropriate for readers in grades four to eight.
