I found the third book in this series randomly while shelving at work and after looking at the art style and reading a summary, I knew I had to read all of them immediately. This juvenile graphic novel packs a punch. A young girl lives with her adopted grandfather and they work together to help their community with potions and tinctures. One day while collecting plants, Bea runs into Cad (an ancient Galdurian) who is, coincidentally, looking for her grandfather to help him. This unlikely duo (plus a cat) wind up on the adventure of a lifetime as they search for her grandfather who has gone missing. As they encounter unfamiliar creatures and lands, Bea’s anxiety is beautifully depicted and balanced out by Cad’s positive outlook and his assistance when situations are dire.
