About this title

About the Author:

Lori Mortensen is a Capstone Press author.

From Booklist:

Ethan has just found a rare Monster Card in the pack he bought, and he wants to show it to his friend Zack, but when he goes to Zack’s house the next day, the card isn’t in his jacket pocket. The two friends search for the card to solve the mystery. This is part of the new My 1st Graphic Novel series, which introduces the format to new readers. The book provides a short tutorial on how to navigate the panels and uses sound effects, dialogue balloons, and brief narrative text to tell the story. The mystery is the kind of situation that children might have in their own lives, and stars African American characters. A brief glossary, discussion questions, and writing prompts provide teachers with easy lesson plans for classroom use. The bright colors and cartoony illustrations add to the appeal for beginning readers. Grades K-2. --Kat Kan
