Bea Wolf

Come listen to the stories of the long ago kids, the improper, the fighters of fun-killers, gated for fame. Meet Tanya Treat-Taker, Shawn Peace-Shatterer and Sonya Foam-Slinger. But mightiest of all of these was Bea Wolf, shield maiden of Heidi’s Hold, sequin-wearing basher of lake beasts and Queen of Battle. Hear the story of how this flower-skirted fighter faced Grindle, the heartless killjoy who sought to end the bubble-blowing, gum-smacking celebrations in the fortress stronghold, Treeheart.

A hilarious adaption of the Old English epic, Beowulf, this graphic novel pairs the poetic feel and format of the original with a child’s dreams of epic misbehavior. The struggle of good vs. evil never before involved so much sugar and sparkles!
