Two books. Two different Series. One review.

Baby-Sitters Little Sister Graphic Novel: V08 Karen's Sleepover by Ann M. Martin

The Wings of Fire V06 Moon Rising by Tui T. Sutherland

August 9, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Series are pluses and minuses in my book. You can continue with characters you like, you can grow and change with them; you can learn from their mistakes and they can become like friends. But if you end on a cliffhanger, you have to wait. And sometimes wait and wait!  And sometimes the series is a take off from another series and you need to do a little catch up.  But the nice thing about the Baby-Sitters Little Sister Graphic Novel is that you do […]

Sing or dig?

Song of the Court by Katy Farina

April 27, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Song of the Court by Katy Farina is a cute story about being true to yourself. It might be a bit sugary sweet for some (probably mostly adults and/or older readers), but for the ages six to eight crowd, and if the reader is more “girly” in their tastes, it is right up their alley. There are princesses, music, gardening, best friends, and a lot more. The illustrations are bold, but not necessarily to extreme. Farina makes them in an anime format, that has hints […]

Oh, I got a brand new pair of roller skates

Karen’s Roller Skates: Babysitters Little Sister Graphic novel by Ann Martin

December 1, 2020 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Did you like the Babysitters Club by Ann Martin? Or did you enjoy the Babysitters Club graphic novels? If you did, and you are looking for something else in the universe, you can do the Babysitters Little Sister Graphic novel series. As it suggests, these books are for the younger crowd. Characters you probably know from the older formats, are here, but done in simpler text and context. Karen’s Roller Skates is book two in this series. It is a stand-alone tale, but it probably […]
