REVIEW: Dewdrop (graphic novel) by K. O'Neill

Dewdrop is either a fantasy graphic novel or a fantasy children's picture book (or both?). I bought my copy new.

Review:

Everyone is preparing for the upcoming Sports Fair...and starting to feel a little discouraged. Dewdrop the axolotl uses his cheerleading skills to boost everyone's mood and get them to focus on relaxing and just doing the best they personally can.

Man, I'm such a cynical adult. This was maybe a bit too chirpy and simple for me. That said, I'm not the target audience. I suspect that children would probably enjoy Dewdrop's energy and positive approach to life. Cynical old me did think that the character designs were super cute. 

The volume ends with a nice environmental message and some facts about the four different animals (axolotl, yellow-bellied slider, newt, and minnow) featured throughout the story.
