    Kubo uses simplistic designs combined with brilliant colors in a myriad of tones. The varying hues are visually pleasing and transportive. I adore the care that is taken with the Black characters. The hair styles and clothing are beautifully done. This is an impressive and well crafted issue. Read Full Review

These are good as an educational tool for younger readers expanding their current fairy stories beyond the worlds of Disney and Grimm. Read Full Review
