review:
In the graphic novel 'Wingbearer' by Marjorie Liu with art by Teny Issakhanian, a young girl makes a strange journey to save the world and maybe learn a little about herself along the way.

Zuli lives in a mysterious tree and communes with the spirits of birds. When she learns of a threat to the tree and the birds, she makes a journey to another world with only her bravery and a magical bracelet. Along the way she encounters strange creatures who may be allies, or may want to sabotage her quest.

This was a great read and Zuli is a great protagonist. Her courage and naivete lead her to trust, sometimes to her benefit and sometimes not. The companions she finds along the way are nicely rounded characters. The art is colorful and has an animated look to it. I think this is one that young readers will enjoy reading with its good story and enjoyable art.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from HarperCollins Children's Books, Quill Tree Books, and NetGalley. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
