review:
'The Lost Expedition (Poptropica #2)' by Mitch Krpata with art by Kory Merritt continues the adventures from the first volume.

Oliver, Mya and Jorge are still on the run from Octavian. They just want to get home, he just wants the map they have. They try to use the map to get home and find themselves on an island of Amazons, in Shakespeare's England, buying fruit from William Gunn on Treasure Island, and finally to the heart of the story in the frozen Antarctic. They escape a polar bear only to find themselves amidst a group of explorers on a boat that is frozen in the ice. Will they be safe here or is there lurking danger? Can they get home? And what does the name Poptropica even mean?

It's a fun young reader series. The travels seem to be taking them through history and literature. The Treasure Island reference is vague, but it's there. I liked the first book in the series a bit better, but this was a fun read.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from ABRAMS Kids, Amulet Books, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
