In this wordless, graphic novel, the images and drawings were stimulating and amazing. With the exception of the first page and the last page, which contains the biography of the characters, the entire book was filled with line drawings page after page. The detailed in the drawings were just

Graphic "novel" with no words about a young Mollie named Ivy and her Korgi Sprout. Great adventures, plot twists, and a cliffhanger, with no words at all.
Good fun!
Good fun!

Sweet! I didn't know much about this book, so finding out it didn't have words was a surprise. I won't ruin any of the other fun surprises in the story, but I will say that these Korgi's are MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. Like Transformers, only fuzzy.

The artwork is lovely--it reminds me somewhat of Chris Riddell's work--and there's no dialogue to distract from it. The story is entirely in the imagery. And that story is good, but not great.
