    BY DONALD PADGETT

    From cartoonist, illustrator, and storyteller Aliza Layne, Beetle & the Hollowbones is a wonderful new graphic novel for readers under 13. Revolving around young teens teaming together to save both the local mall – and a friend in the process – in Layne’s hands the story unfolds with vivid color schemes and delightful and expressive characters.

    features the genre’s typical fare with magic and supernatural elements, normalizes and affirms queer kids, gender fluidity, and ethnic diversity.
