Fans of comics, and heartwarming stories—not to mention
cats!—will love Kitten Ninja, the origin story of the incredible
Cat Ninja! Before Cat Ninja grew up and became Metro City’s
greatest defender, he was tiny, adorable Kitten Ninja and he
battled...much tinier foes. (Hey, everybody has to start somewhere,
right?) In this spin-off prequel to the enormously popular Epic
Original Cat Ninja series, our favorite feline hero takes on
everything a kitten-size ninja has to battle on the way to his
heroic destiny: a sun spot that won’t stay put, an irresistible
ball of yarn, and—every cat’s archenemy—snow!
From Epic! Originals comes an even spookier, sillier, slimier
collection of illustrated stories guaranteed to make you laugh so
loud you'll wake the monster under the bleachers! The Cafetorium is
open for lunch—and play rehearsal, gym class, and unintentional
interdimensional travel! Join comic book fan Dee Dee, master gamer
Jackie, and the rest of the crew (including everyone’s favourite
goat) in this brand-new set of wonderfully weird tales.Â
These charming stories present kids' everyday school and friendship
challenges in unexpected ways, letting kids laugh while they build
empathy, resilience, social skills, and more.
Dive whiskers-first into the hit graphic novel series about a new
breed of superhero! In this action-packed box set, join Cat Ninja
and his friends as he faces a variety of challenges, from scheming
villains to babysitting and boredom. Raised from a kitten by a
kindly old ninja master, Claude now spends his days as the pampered
house cat of an eleven-year-old boy. But when trouble arises, he
dons his mask and springs into action as Cat Ninja-Metro City's
secret protector! Follow Cat Ninja, Master Hamster, and a colorful
cast of friends and foes in volumes 1-3 of the Kirkus-starred
series: Book 1: Cat Ninja Follow our feline hero's early exploits
as he tries to keep his secret identity under wraps while thwarting
the evil plans of slimy crooks, rampaging robots, and a certain
rodent nemesis who lives under the same roof! Book 2: Time Heist
When Leon brings a mystery egg home from school, Cat Ninja and
Master Hamster face their biggest challenge yet: babysitting! And
while they're pretty sure they can keep an egg out of trouble, they
know they're in over their heads when that egg hatches into a
high-energy ball of feathers and cuteness. It's baby's first
superhero adventure when they decide to bring their newest family
member along as they uncover the identity-and nefarious motives-of
Metro City's latest foe. Book 3: Wanted Metro City's favorites and
newcomers share the spotlight in tales that include a nearly
cat-astrophic case of stolen identity, the not-so-villainous
adventures of Master Hamster, and Adonis's first mission as one of
the good guys. Enjoy six hilarious, stand-alone stories, plus a
five-part Cat Ninja special miniseries!
