The Sueño Bay Adventures graphic novel series, by Nancy & Mike Deas, teaches kids about environmentalism, friendship, and home, and regularly receives starred reviews. No wonder it’s a go-to staple for teachers and librarians alike. In this fourth book, friends Kay, Ollie, Jenna, and Sleeves try to help a lost moon creature at the lighthouse of Candle Point. Nancy and Mike will take students on a magical romp through colourful landscapes and flora, sharing what makes a brilliant adventure and what we can learn from the characters in their series who, book after book, dare to explore strange, fascinating places. Grades 2–4.
