The Snow Thief

5.0

adventurous funny informative inspiring lighthearted relaxing fast-paced

Aww haha this was an adorable story about a squirrel who is just discovering snow for the first time! The squirrel is first wary of the snow cause it’s cold and unknown. But a helpful bird teaches squirrel it can be fun!

Also loved how the author added fun facts all about the winter season at the end of the story. Not only is this adorable, great for children who love the snow, it’s also very educational!

It was a bit slow at first but as the story went on I couldn’t stop reading. This is a very well written, and illustrated comic. I absolutely loved the characters and the world building. I can’t wait to read more!

This graphic novel sadly wasn’t for me. That being said I know I’m not necessarily the target audience for this book. It was easy to read. Filled with interesting imaginations. I think a lot of young kids would enjoy this book.

I really liked this book. Lovely art and details as well, it was easy to follow along with the main storyline. A beautiful and wholesome graphic novel about friendship, facing your fears and allowing yourself to let go of your negative thoughts.
