"Deep in the heart of the planet Irpa stands the Salty Pig's House of Tonics & Tinctures, home of the wise Pig Wizard and his adopted granddaughter, Bea. As keepers of the Endless Flame, they live a quiet and peaceful life, crafting medicines and potions for the people of their once-prosperous world. All that changes one day when, while walking through the woods, Bea meets Cad, a member of the Galdurians, an ancient race thought to be long-extinct. Cad believes that if anyone can help him find his missing people, it's the Pig Wizard. But when the two arrive home, the Pig Wizard is nowhere to be found--all that's left is the Jar of Endless Flame and a mysterious note. Fearing for the Pig Wizard's safety, Bea and Cad set out across Irpa to find him, while danger fights its way out of the shadows and into the light. Will these two unexpected friends find the beloved Pig Wizard and prevent eternal darkness from blanketing their world? Or has Irpa truly seen its last sunrise?"--Provided by publisher.… (more)

Now THIS is what I want in a Middle Grade fantasy graphic novel! I absolutely devoured this book with my kids and didn't want it to end. The artwork is stunning, the storyline is compelling, and the characters are all fantastic. I love the dynamic between the Bea and Cad, and I can't wait to see where their epic quest takes them next!

The illustrations are gorgeous - they give such comfy autumn vibes.
The main protagonist is a young girl who seems to have anxiety/panic attacks and finds herself on a quest to find her grandfather - along the way she makes some friends and overcomes her fears.
It was well paced and I’m eager to see how the story ends. Would recommend for kids aged 9 and up. ( )

This is an adorable fantasy adventure about a girl who has to venture out of her home and her comfort zone to find her grandfather...who happens to be a pig wizard. I really liked the characters, the world, and the art and can't wait to see more. I also appreciated that Bea, our MC, seems to struggle with anxiety (or something similar, it's not expressly stated) in a way that visually fits the world. I appreciate how the medium was used to explore how anxiety can make us feel and some of the ways we can push it back. Looking forward to getting my hands on volume 2 asap! ( )
