This is an AWESOME choose your own adventure comic, for young and old alike. You get to choose between the two characters and 3 animal friends (plus you can pick up others on the way). There are quest tracker sheets at the front of the book that make it easy to log things like food for your pets and any extra items you acquire.

I've played through twice and was much more successful the second time. I made more choices to explore and earn more stars for my good deeds. And there's still plenty of adventure to be had! I love the art style and I will definitely be buying the next book! I like that the website also offers printable quest trackers, so there's no reason not to keep playing. Also I don't think there's a "bad ending" though I could be wrong - but if there isn't, I enjoy that because you don't have to worry about wrong choices - you just might not get to explore as much or earn as many stars.

At the end you can compete against the other chatacter to see if you beat your sibling. And I think you could easily play with a friend instead and each take turns as a different chara and see who gets more stars. This is just super charming and I love it a whole lot.… (mehr)

Choose your own adventure combined with a graphic novel. Yes please!!! How awesome is this book, so awesome that I need a print copy stat! What a wonderful idea and the execution is excellent. As the reader you get your clues both in the text and in the illustrations. Plus it is put on like a game where you have to feed your magical creature or else he is asleep and not there to give you needed magical powers. Did I mention you can pick the character you play as, so that increases the number of story lines.I am completely in love with this book. Thank you Quirk Books for bringing back my fav type childhood books!!!!!!… (mehr)
