You know when a book is just good and you don’t have a whole lot to say about it besides that? That’s Snapdragon. The artwork is well done, with strong character designs that are simple yet highly expressive, and each panel has just the right amount of detail to make the world feel real while still being easily readable. The characters are easy to love and root for. The story is sweet yet also a little dark, but not in a way that feels inharmonious. It’s just good. Give it a read.

I absolutely adored this witchy, queer book about a girl who makes friends with a witch in the woods and takes an interest in natural science. Super charming! The character designs are wonderful, the support and acceptance we see throughout is heartwarming, and the gender and identity exploration is rewarding. Great Black rep! Bonus points for senior characters and two holidays (Halloween, Thanksgiving)

A moment where a toxic father has a dangerous altercation with his kid may be difficult for some audience members.

LOVE. Immediately wanted to reread. Adore the characters, the art is dynamic and easy to read, and the story is so intimate and warm.

Moderate: Animal death and Bullying

Minor: Transphobia, Animal cruelty, Deadnaming, and Injury/Injury detail

Animal death and taxidermy is a major part of the story, but is not graphically depicted. One incident of transphobic bullying. The dog is threatened once but is never harmed.
