I think this is the first graphic novel for youngsters that I've read and it was okay. First, if you are not a fan of "pink", stay away. This book is black & white & PINK! Babymouse is a bit of a selfish, neurotic mouse who is going to camp. Things go wrong and eventually Babymouse steps up to the plate to change things. Babymouse gets carried away with her thoughts and they are graphically shown. For example, Babymouse is trying to get to the top bunk and visualizes it the height of the Empire State Building and she is King Kong (now Babykong).
I will be reading it to my niece and nephews this weekend, reporting back to give you their feedback. I write more on Monday.
