Otto: a Palindrama by Jon Agee, 141 pages. GRAPHIC NOVEL. Graphic (Penguin), 2021. $18.
BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - ESSENTIAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Otto has been called to dinner – but his imagination gets lost in a grand adventure story.
Agee tells his story completely in palindromes – even the signage. While sometimes it makes the dialogue a bit awkward, the palindrome scheme is so amazing, I can’t fault that. A fun visual adventure and a fun read.
