Cardboard by Doug TenNapel
Fantasy
With a plot reminiscent of Gremlins and a visual style familiar to anyone who played the video game classic Earthworm Jim, this is a fun read. No real surprises, and it seems like a character has to stop and reflect every fifth page, but it's nice to see the three character arcs progress.
A perfectly fine young adult graphic novel.
A perfectly fine young adult graphic novel.
It is Cam's birthday, and his widower father is out of a job and cannot afford a present. The best he can acquire is a cardboard box that a mysterious man sells him, on certain conditions. Father and son get to work, and make a robot from the cardboard. The robot comes to life.
Cam wants more, but there is not enough cardboard, so his dad invents a cardboard gadget to make more magic cardboard. That's fine until the bully next door gets involved.
This is an imaginative and exciting story, with a graphic style that adds a considerable sense of pace and action. It has its sensitive moments as well, without being sappy. Highly recommended.… (more)
