YORUMLAR:
ASTRONAUT ACADEMY: Re-Entry by Dave Roman
Kirkus, Nisan 15, 2013   sayısı
“Deadpan quirk…Definitely goofy.”


JERUSALEM by Boaz Yakin, illus. by Nick Bertozzi
Graphic Novel Reporter,   Mart  22, 2013: Author   Röpörtaj (DEVAMINI OKUMAK İÇİN TIKLAYIN!)
“I was enthralled by the work; I think you will be too, and you’ll find Boaz’s   Röpörtaj a revealing look at the personal and political ways lives are shaped.”


NOTHING CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG by Prudence Shen, illus. by Faith Erin Hicks
Publishers Weekly,   Mart  25, 2013   sayısı: 2nd YILDIZLI YORUM!
« “Shen’s plot ably balances drama, humor, angst, and robotic geekery, giving the book an immediate YA appeal, but one that’s broad enough to be enjoyable to older readers, as well. Visually, Hicks’s wide-eyed, inky b&w panels infuse the characters with real emotion and personality, capturing the book’s heartfelt youthfulness.”

Kirkus, Nisan15, 2013   sayısı
“Spot-on and often laugh-out-loud funny…Don’t miss this one.”


ODD DUCK by Cecil Castellucci, illus. by Sara Varon
New York Times, Nisan14, 2013: SCAN EDİLMİŞ YAZIYI OKUMAK İÇİN SİZE VERECEĞİM LİNKE GİRİNİZ;
“Castellucci’s story about accepting differences brims with appealingly quirky touches, and Varon’s panels are funny and fresh in this all-too-rare and very fine example of the early reader graphic novel.”

Horn Book, Mayıs/Haziran 2013   sayısı
“A lively friendship story that shows it’s more fun to be different than “normal,” and most fun of all to be different with a buddy.”
                http://us.macmillan.com/oddduck/SaraVaron


POSIEDON: EARTH-SHAKER by George O’Connor
Shelf Awareness, Nisan 2, 2013: YILDIZLI YORUM!
« “This fifth book in the Olympians series from author-artist George O’Connor lives up to the exceedingly high standards he set with his launch title, Zeus.”

New York Times,   Mart  29, 2013: Arts Beat, “Grafik Kitaplar En Çok Satanlar”
“I’ve always been captivated by the betrayals, intrigues and romances of the Greek gods, and the same is true for this series, of which I’m a big fan.”

Booklist, Nisan15, 2013   sayısı
“Poseidon figures heavily in some of the chestnuts of Greek myth, like the belabored trip home of Odysseus and Theseus’ clash with the Minotaur, both handled with O’Connor’s blend of bombastic action, deft plotting, thoughtful characterization, and killer artwork.”


Wired,   Mart  27, 2013: GeekMom Yazarla   Röpörtaj (OKUYUN!)
“I stuck very, very close to the way that the story is told in The Odyssey itself — all that intense scary stuff is right in there, you just have to read it carefully. That’s one of the things that is so great about comics — the combination of visuals and words can make the immersion in the story so easy, so complete.”

MTV Geek,   Mart  26, 2013: Video   Röpörtaj (İZLEYİN!)
“George O'Connor dropped by the MTV Geek HQ to discuss his "Olympians" series, why he chose Poseidon, and more in our special video   Röpörtaj.”

PRIMATES: THE FEARLESS SCIENCE OF JANE GOODALL, DIAN FOSSEY, AND BIRUTÉ GALDIKAS
by Jim Ottaviani, illus. by Maris Wicks
Publishers Weekly,   Mart  25, 2013   sayısı: YILDIZLI YORUM!
« “A riveting, jargon-free overview of one of the great stories of animal research.”
               
Horn Book, Mayıs/Haziran 2013   sayısı
“A graphic format admirably propels this lightly fictionalized group biography of “Leakey’s Angels”: Jane Goodall (chimps in Tanzania), Dian Fossey (gorillas in Rwanda), and Biruté Galdikas (orangutans in Borneo).”
                http://us.macmillan.com/primates/JimOttaviani

THE BOY WHO LOVED MATH: The Improbable Life of Paul Erdös
by Deborah Heiligman, illus. by LeUyen Pham
Kirkus, Nisan15, 2013   sayısı: YILDIZLI YORUM!
« “An exuberant and admiring portrait introduces the odd, marvelously nerdy, way cool Hungarian-born itinerant mathematical genius…The polished, disarming text offers Pham free rein for lively illustration that captures Erdös’ childlike spirit.”

New York Times: Online Crosswords Section ‘de çıkan Makale: OKUYUN!
“[Erdös’] impact will be felt for a long time.”

Horn Book, Mayıs/Haziran 2013   sayısı
“Pham’s artwork is inspired—her characters have a timeless quality, and each illustration is a puzzle for the reader to solve…an infinitely creative and entertaining book for epsilons, numerically inclined or no.”


BREAKFAST ON MARS: And 37 Other Delectable Essays Edited by Rebecca Stern and Brad Wolfe
Kirkus, Nisan15   sayısı: YILDIZLI YORUM!

FLYING SOLO by Julie Cummins, illus. by Malene R. Laugesen

HELLO, MY NAME IS RUBY by Philip C. Stead
Kirkus, Mayıs 1   sayısı: YILDIZLI YORUM!
« “Stead’s flora-filled settings and free-spirited style will feel happily familiar to readers of A Home for Bird…the heroine and readers comprehend and value the concepts of name and identity—and the blessings that reaching out to a diverse community bestows.”
               

IF YOU WANT TO SEE A WHALE by Julie Fogliano, illus. by Erin E. Stead
Publishers Weekly,   Mart  18, 2013   sayısı: 3rd YILDIZLI YORUM!

Horn Book, Mayıs/Haziran 2013   sayısı
“Fogliano’s text cleverly tells us all the things we should ignore—a pirate ship, a pelican, a caterpillar—as we focus our vision on the longed-for whale…The genius of Stead’s art is that it leaves space for the viewer’s imagination to interpret the pictures.”

REVIEWS:
BO AT BALLARD CREEK by Kirkpatrick Hill
Horn Book, Mayıs/Haziran 2013   sayısı: YILDIZLI YORUM!
« “Hill’s book is a little more rambunctious, but in the end it shares something else with Laura [Ingalls Wilder]: with the gold now gone, Bo and her papas (and a new adopted little brother) head out for better prospects and perhaps another book?”

Kirkus, Nisan15, 2013   sayısı
“An Alaskan version of the Little House books…Bo is an endearing Pollyanna in a parka.”

Booklist, Nisan15, 2013   sayısı

THAT’S A POSSIBILITY!: A BOOK ABOUT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN by Bruce Goldstone

KELSEY GREEN, READING QUEEN: Franklin School Friends, Book 1
by Claudia Mills, illus. by Rob Shepperson
Horn Book, Mayıs/Haziran 2013   sayısı
“First in a new series, the chapter book explores Mills’s favorite subject—everyday life with a side of ethical examination—to good effect as Kelsey discovers the difference between loving to read and loving to win.”


NELLY MAYIS HAS HER SAY by Cynthia DeFelice, illus. by Henry Cole 
Wall Street Journal,   Mart  15, 2013: OKUYUN!
“The measured introduction of these comical names comes to a climax when the house catches on fire and the servant girl must frantically recall the right terms in order to convey alarm to her "Most Excellent of All Masters." Nelly saves the day, all right.”

BCCB, Nisan2013   sayısı
“Smart and snappy.”


PAPA’S MECHANICAL FISH by Candace Fleming, illus. by Boris Kulikov
Kirkus, Mayıs 1, 2013   sayısı
