review:
'Hocus & Pocus: The Legend of Grimm's Woods' by Manuro with illustrations by Gorobei is a graphic novel version of a choose your own adventure type book.

You can choose to either follow Hocus or Pocus as they investigate a cottage. There is a stat sheet to track your adventure, as well as the pet you choose and any treasure you find. The story features elements of famous fairy tales like Hansel & Gretel and Red Riding Hood.

This was a bit difficult to read in review copy form, but I think a physical copy would be a ton of fun for young readers. I followed Hocus as he went around the cottage and got chased by scary trees. There are some good branches to the story and puzzles the reader has to solve to move on to the right page. The illustrations are a lot of fun and there seem to be tons of choices. I especially liked how some choices were drawn right in to the story.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quirk Books and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
