Book Overview
Kat Leyh's Snapdragon is a magical realist graphic novel about a young girl who befriends her town's witch and discovers the strange magic within herself.
Snap's town had a witch. At least, that's how the rumor goes. But in reality, Jacks is just a crocks-wearing, internet-savvy old lady who sells roadkill skeletons online--after doing a little ritual to put their spirits to rest. It's creepy, sure, but Snap thinks it's kind of cool, too. They make a deal: Jacks will teach Snap how to take care of the baby opossums that Snap rescued, and Snap will help Jacks with her work. But as Snap starts to get to know Jacks, she realizes that Jacks may in fact have real magic--and a connection with Snap's family's past.Format:Paperback

A Must Read
Published by Pupper , 8 months ago
I absolutely loved Snapdragon. It's a coming of age story that has characters growing and learning to come into their own, and it's something I can relate to. The art is gorgeous and cute and the story, though brief, is amazing. The pacing was perfect. It definitely gave me Studio Ghibli/Hayo Miyazaki vibes while reading. And as an artist, I loved how they provided a few pages of the comic process such as character design.

Such a sweet journey of being an individual, finding one’s tribe, and eventually owning one’s gifts. This was so heartwarming and of course, magical. I enjoyed the graphics and the unique characters.
Wonderful in every sense of the word
