3 posts | 5 read | 4 to read
A young girl's presence threatens the peace of a magical sanctuary high in the Himalayas. Beyond the peaks and valleys of the Himalaya Mountains lies a magical sanctuary. Protected from the chaos of man, it is home to immortal beings and mystical creatures. When Vijaya, a young human girl, is brought to the sanctuary for her protection, the immortals welcome her, but fear she will lead to their ruin. As mankind draws closer to the sanctuary's borders, Vijaya must protect her new friends and prove what humans are capable of. Explore the wonders and beauty of A Girl in the Himalayas, David Jesus Vignolli’s debut graphic novel, as it examines the astonishing potential of the human spirit. "A Girl in the Himalayas is a wonderful fable about learning the value of this incredibly magical world we live in, which we can so easily forget, and how sometimes we must protect this world from the dangerous illusions we create and come to believe.” -Fábio Moon (Two Brothers, Daytripper)

Solidly between a pick and a so-so. This charming graphic novel turns humans' destruction of nature into a dangerous creature that attacks the world's spirits and kills of what nature is left. Two protectors of a sanctuary find and take in a human girl, and it's a point of contention. This was a fun read and I LOVE the elementals, but some parts of the story felt unearned and expressions were hard to identify. #nature #elemental #comic

This #kidlit #graphicnovel follows two guardian spirits as they rescue Vijaya, a human girl, and bring her to their hidden sanctuary home. The magic/spiritual message is a little vague but the illustrations are so nice that almost doesn‘t matter: cute Elemental spirits, sweeping landscapes, slightly sinister guardians, and a big-eyed girl. A sweet story.
