Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Vol. 1: BFF by Brandon Montclare, Amy Reeder

4.0

Ok, I love everything about this. And not just because Lunella is only one letter off my name. She's brave and smart and not afraid to do her own thing. Her parents make me so angry. I get wanting to have your child have a "normal" childhood, but Lunella should definitely be at a different school that respects her intellect and allows her to experiment rather than being forced to sit through 4th grade science which is clearly well below her learning level. And her classmates are not her peers - they're just bullies who don't understand. I am so proud of Lunella standing up to her parents, making her mom listen (though I know Mom in part only listened because when the Killer folk attacked, Lunella was able to save her in a more concrete way than just talking about science).

Devil is adorable, especially at the end. Poor Lunella! I'm sure it'll work out alright for her, but I empathize with her, having her own body betray her, having events shift so that she couldn't be prepared like she'd planned.
