Description

Praise for Escape from the Lizzarks : (Nnewts #1) "A visually rich and abundantly imaginative adventure that lands some serious emotional punches."-- Publishers Weekly Praise for The Rise of Herk : (Nnewts #2): "Readers who like lots of action, fighting, magic, and a little humor to lighten the drama will find them here."-- Booklist Praise for Ghostopolis : * "TenNapel's colorful illustrations are filled with energy and life."-- School Library Journal , starred review Praise for Bad Island : * "A clever, old-fashioned adventure with some modern twists and a light-hearted tone, this, like TenNapel's previous work, is not to be missed."-- Booklist , starred review* "TenNapel has crafted another rip-roaring adventure with wide audience appeal."-- School Library Journal , starred review Praise for Cardboard : * "An exceptionally seamless blend of action and philosophy, two elements that usually do not mix easily; TenNapel handles this masterfully. Utterly brilliant."-- Kirkus Reviews , starred review"A boldly imaginative and ambitious tale."-- The Horn Book Praise for Tommysaurus Rex : "TenNapel unleashes an array of charmingly off-kilter characters and has mastered a cartoonish style that preserves a sense of grit while lending some emotional weight to match the story."-- Booklist "It's a premise worthy of a loony Saturday morning cartoon, complete with bulgy-eyed characters that nearly bounce off the full-color pages, but underlying the fun is a potent and affecting story about facing death and growing up."-- Publishers Weekly "Unpredictable and engaging, this will be a popular pick for reluctant readers and graphic-novel fans."-- School Library Journal From the Inside Flap The fate of all Nnewts hangs in the balance! In the final, epic installment of the Nnewts trilogy, Herk is falling under the influence of Blakk Mudd.

The stories are fantastic! This is the culmination of the Nnewts trilogy ...

My kids would have wore out all of these books in a few weeks from frequent reading, but they are very well made. The stories are fantastic! This is the culmination of the Nnewts trilogy and has an unexpected ending. Bravery and adventure are modeled and true heroism wins the day! Kids and grown ups with both have trouble putting these TenNapel books down.

OBSESSED

My 7yo emerging reader that loves graphic novels was obsessed with this book for a couple weeks. He read all 3, I read them to him, his dad them. Then, we wanted a 4th one so bad that we started writing and drawing his own. The story had great messages and some nice poetry.

Adventure!

Doug TenNapel magic storytelling. He knows how to make an appealing story and always injects a lofty spiritual uplift. But it will roller coaster the reader the way it should. Always surprising and fun. Great art that is hard to beat for energy and composition.
