Aguirre, Jorge Dragons Beware! (Giants Beware, #2), illustrated by Rafael Rosado, 153 pages. GRAPHIC NOVEL. First Second (Macmillan),
2015. $15. Content: Language: G; Mature Content: G; Violence: G.
Claudette, her baking little brother and her
princess-like best friend decide to go on another quest in an attempt to
reclaim Claudette’s father’s sword, Breaker.
Breaker can nullify magic, but was eaten by a big mother dragon named
Azra. Claudette’s father’s nemesis is
coming with his gargoyle army, so Claudette knows she needs Breaker. Claudette is not afraid to face Azra, but she
will need her family and friends to conquer Azra and win against the
gargoyles.
Claudette is a brave warrior
girl who is afraid of nothing. Her
innocent brother and bestie are always by her side and I love to see what
creative ways they use to accomplish their journey. They do destroy some gargoyles, but there
isn’t any graphic violence and the illustrations are very appealing.
