Review:
Let's say first and foremost that the artwork in this graphic novel is fantastic. The details in it are phenomenal, little aspects of the story tucked into every page.
Though the artwork is beyond reproach I found the story a little convoluted and difficult to follow. I know that they are trying to allow the reader to notice that there is something going on with the children that is imagination based, or is it? BUT, I felt as if more could have been made clear.
I give this book a three and a quarter, though with the storyline I had to round down instead of rounding up.
