Recess Warriors: Hero is a Four Letter Word by Marcus Emerson

I enjoyed Recess Warriors: Hero is a Four Letter Word by Marcus Emerson because of the imagination and adventure that the story shows. It's based on the adventures of Scrap, aka Bryce the main character. It explains what happens at recess at Armstrong Elementary school. The story-line changes every chapter. Everything happens during their recess. Although they are playing and pretending, the story makes it seem as if it were all real.

The art is amazing and some of the best style I’ve seen in a graphic novel.  The comedy is great, it reminds me of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. There are truly great character designs and the cover design is nice and colorful. It's a world filled with imagination where girls are power hungry pirates and zombies take over the school. Anything can happen in this world and that's why I love this book and I'm sure you’ll like it too.

Fish by Gregory Mone

Fish by Gregory Mone is a fun story.  You'll like it, especially if you like pirates.  The main character is nicknamed "Fish" because he loves to swim, at a time when most people didn't even know how to float.  He leaves his father's farm to make money for the family by working with his uncle, who is a city merchant.  Through a series of events, Fish ends up swabbing the decks of a pirate ship, dealing with bullies, and searching for treasure.  This book reminded me of the Pirates movies with Johnny Depp.  Complete with stinky feet and bad breath, this funny adventure will certainly entertain you.
