My pick for MMGM this week is Ghostopolis by Doug TenNapel. It is a graphic novel about a boy who gets transported into the Underworld and has to stop the evil ruler of the Underworld. This book is full of adventures and it really well thought out. I liked how the author mapped out the Underworld, and how it was divided into different areas, like, The Bone Kingdom, Mummyville, and Ghostopolis. I also really enjoyed the illustrations and the variety of creatures in Ghostopolis. I think this is a great book and you should defineatley check it out. This is a great book for kids who really don't like to read since it's a graphic novel and really fast-paced.

I picked up this book at my school's Scholastic Book Fair, but you can get it at your favorite Indie Bookstore or your local or school library.

I hadn't heard of this. It sounds fun. Thanks for sharing about it.
ReplyDeleteI've shelved this book in the bookstore, but never read it. Have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of graphic novels. Sounds like a winner, though!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this one- but I have been wanting to read some graphic novels. I have added this one to my list because it sounds interesting. Great review!
