My Bea Wolf hold came up! I think this might be more of a read aloud, but I'm going to give it a go anyway

A delightful graphic novel for kids. Loved the word play and the art style. I was gifted this beautiful book. I dont think I would have read it otherwise. Was a joy to read. 4 🌟

This is the best book I have read in a LONG time! I think this will be my favorite book of the year. It is SO MUCH FUN! A villain who turns children into adults, the descriptions of childhood chaos, and the word smithing. THE WORD SMITHING. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Loved this graphic novel children‘s take on Beowulf. Great illustrations and hilarious text that is quite faithful to the original. Set in suburbia, the kids battle a fun killer named Mr. Grindle. https://cannonballread.com/2023/03/bea-wolf-elcicco/

This was an amazing graphic novel! It's a children's take on Beowulf with the monster being a man who when he touches something, they become old and grumpy. Loved the graphics, although I would've rather it be in color. Awesome story and looking forward to reading the next one in the series (when it comes out!)

3 ⭐ This graphic novel takes the idea of the classic Beowulf and turns it on its head. It‘s children who like to play and be loud going up against the grouchy neighbor man, Mr. Grendel. What makes this book unique is that it keeps the vocalization of the classic epic. It‘s very‘ very‘ very wordy. The words trip all over themselves. On reading it feels like a troubadour of old, trying to get the audience‘s attention.

A middle grade graphic novel retelling of Beowulf?! This looks delightful. I saw someone post about it on Instagram and immediately requested it on NetGalley and got it. #arc #NetGalley
