"The text contains some sophisticated vocabulary and literary
references (there is a vampire named Bram, for instance), while
remaining accessible. Fignation is a richly imagined world of
fantastical creatures. The drawings throughout are engaging and
make good use of moody, saturated colors. A recreation of an Oddly
Normal collection published in 2006 that expands upon the original
story and has reimagined illustrations. VERDICT This is Frampton's
fully realized vision for Oddly Normal; it is worth adding to any
collection, even those that already contain the earlier edition." -
School Library Journal "Frampton's art is refreshingly quirky, with
strong lines and bold use of color. The world he creates is full of
fun and whimsy, and kids will easily relate to Oddly's struggle to
become comfortable in her own skin. This will quickly become a
favorite among comics fans." - Booklist Meet Oddly Normal, a
