The Brights are back in their second out-of-this-world graphic
novel! From Epic Originals, The Bright Family series teaches
heartfelt lessons about conflict resolution, cooperation, and the
importance of family in all its forms. After searching for each
other throughout the multiverse and repairing their
interdimensional portals together, the Bright family is ready for a
vacation! But relaxing days riding water slides and eating space
ramen are put on hold when the portal drops them deep in the jungle
on an unknown planet rather than at the door of the luxury resort.
Told through multigenerational storytelling, the Brights are about
to figure out that space travel is a lot like space ramen: It
always leaves adventurers wanting more. Includes "One Birthday in
Time," a bonus Bright Family tale outside the main plot line that's
a true moment of delight for readers.

And at the end, young readers can learn how to make their own twig friend with simple step-by-step instructions!
This funny young graphic novel will surprise and delight young readers aged 5-8, and is the perfect series to help branch them out from picture books to chapter books and graphic novels. If you love hilarious friendship series like Narwhal and Jelly, you'll adore TWIG FRIENDS!

The dramatic and hotly anticipated conclusion to Alexis Deacon's
original Geis trilogy, featuring new branding and a format designed
to sit alongside Curse of the Chosen Volume 1. As the great chief
matriarch lay dying, she gave one final decree: Upon her death
there would be a contest. Having no heir of her own blood she
called on the Gods. Let fate decide the one truly worthy to rule in
her place. The rich, the strong, the wise, the powerful; many put
forward their names in hope of being chosen. But when the night
came... only fifty souls alone were chosen. As Io's quest reaches
its deadly and dramatic conclusion, things are not all as they seem
in the sorceress' game for the right to rule. Still trapped inside
the torturous nightmares within the castle, who will remain in the
battle for the throne, and which of the chosen will be lost along
the way? Or will they fail in their attempts to escape the horrors
within? Alexis Deacon draws his Geis trilogy to an epic and emotive
conclusion in this newly branded volume, packed to the rafters with
his beautiful artwork and gripping storytelling.
