Come check out our Middle Grade Comic/Manga Book Club! For our March session we will be discussing the the graphic novel Wingbearer written by Majorie Liu and illustrated by Teny Issakhanian. Copies of Wingbearer are available for pick up at the South Regional Library Information Desk. Please register online. This event will only be happening in-person.

A young girl must stop a threat to her magical world in this epic graphic novel from New York Times bestselling author Marjorie Liu and remarkable debut illustrator Teny Issakhanian. Plus don’t miss the spectacular sequel, Wingborn, out in fall 2023!

Zuli is extraordinary—she just doesn’t realize it yet. Raised by mystical bird spirits in the branches of the Great Tree, she’s never ventured beyond this safe haven. She’s never had to. Until now.

When a sinister force threatens the life-giving magic of the tree, Zuli, along with her guardian owl, Frowly, must get to the root of it. So begins an adventure bigger than anything Zuli could’ve ever imagined—one that will bring her, along with some newfound friends, face-to-face with an ancient dragon, the so-called Witch-Queen, and most surprisingly of all: her true identity.

This captivating middle grade graphic novel, the first of a series, is perfect for fans of the Amulet books and the Wings of Fire series.
