Bree Paulsen's brave little protagonist, Garlic, is back in this
charmingly illustrated standalone companion to Garlic and the
Vampire, serving up another tale of friendship, magic, and
self-discovery. Give both books to readers who fell in love with
Tidesong or Witch Boy! Garlic loves spending time with Witch Agnes,
Carrot, and her new friend, the Count, who has proven to be a
delightful neighbor to the village of vegetable people rather than
a scary vampire. But despite Agnes's best attempts to home-brew a
vegetarian blood substitute for Count, the ingredient she needs
most can only be found at the Magic Market, far from the valley.
Before she knows it, with a broomstick in hand, Garlic is nervously
preparing for a journey. But Garlic is experiencing another change
too-finger by finger, she appears to be turning human. Witch Agnes
assures her that this is normal for her garden magic, but Garlic
isn't so sure that she's ready for such a big change. After all,
changes are scary...and what if she doesn't want to be human after
all?
An enchanting, farm-fresh debut graphic novel starring an unusual
heroine who is braver than she realizes, for middle grade readers
looking for a cozy, adventuresome read in the vein of Witch Boy or
Be Prepared. Garlic feels as though she's always doing something
wrong. At least with her friend Carrot by her side and the kindly
Witch Agnes encouraging her, Garlic is happy to just tend her
garden, where it's nice and safe. But when her village of vegetable
folk learns that a bloodthirsty vampire has moved into the nearby
castle, they all agree that, in spite of her fear and self-doubt,
Garlic is the obvious choice to confront him. And with everyone
counting on her, Garlic reluctantly agrees to face the mysterious
vampire, hoping she has what it takes. After all, garlic drives
away vampires...right?
