Explorer: Book Three: The Hidden Doors - Hardcover

"Consider this (and previous series installments) as a necessary addition to any graphic novel collection."--Jenna Lanterman, formerly at The Calhoun School and Mary McDowell Friends School, New York City"School Library Journal" (11/01/2014) "The last three stories--Steve Hamaker's rollicking 'Fish n Chips'; Johane Matte's inventive Egyptian-graverobbing story, 'Mastaba'; and Jen Breach and Douglas Holgate's pun-tastic fantasy action tale 'When Is a Door Not a Door?'--end the collection on a high note, with solid plots and gorgeous artwork. Expect followers of the popular series to snatch it up."-- (10/06/2014) STARRED REVIEW "Another worthy entry in a series of themed collections that places production and storytelling on equally high pedestals."--Kirkus Reviews (10/01/2014)
