Kerry and the Knight of the Forest: (A Graphic Novel) (Paperback)
Staff Reviews
This middle grade graphic novel is a cute little spin on the classic red riding hood tale. At it's heart, this is a book about helping others and finding the good in everyone. The folksy illustrations are very well done and pair perfectly with the tone of the story.

"A timeless and immersive fantasy." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
“An infectiously fun adventure that hints at danger without crossing the line into frightening. Put this into the hands of 'Hildafolk' fans.” —School Library Journal
