Hardback. Zustand: Good. Inspired by the creator?s love of all things 80s including Hello Kitty, My Little Pony, Rainbow Brite, retro comic books, and Lisa Frank, this picture book told in comic panels is brimming with cuteness, accessible quirk, and a feel-good message of kindness. Bea loves helping friends and wants to be a superhero, but none of the costumes she tries on fit her personality. While Bea?s world is anything but ordinary, the things she accomplishes with her creativity and preparedness are all things a regular kid--with a big heart, a healthy dose of confidence, and an inflatable turtle--could do. This is a perfect intro to reading stories told in sequential pictures and a way for emerging readers to take an active role in following the narrative. And when readers fall in love with Bunnygirl, they won?t have to worry because she has another adventure coming soon. "Berbay has produced a delightful book that retains the distinctly kawaii feel of Jayne?s original artworks? Bunnygirl?s message of kindness as a superpower is lovely for little ones to discover." Books + Publishing"A great early introduction into graphic novels, and its simple word choice makes for a wonderful easy reader." School Library Journal.…
