Bluffton

BlufftonBluffton by Matt Phelan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I know I shouldn't admit this as a librarian, but graphic novels are not really my thing. I admire the kids I know who can zip through them with appreciation and enthusiasm, but my brain does not work that way. I'm often overwhelmed by all the busyness on the page. However, just as he did in The Storm in the Barn, Matt Phelan has made me think twice. This time it's Bluffton which is just awesome. That one person can create the beautiful art, write convincing characters and plot, and do the research required for historical fiction is awesome. I'm interested to see what students will think of this one.
