Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier and All's Faire in Middle
School, this sequel to the Eisner Award-nominated The Cardboard
Kingdom follows the kids as they solve the mystery of a new
neighborhood monster.
A mystery is afoot in the Cardboard Kingdom.
Vijay, the Beast, renounces his title after being bullied by
neighborhood teenagers. No one--not his big sister Shikha or his
friends--can seem to draw him back out of his shell.
That very night is when it starts. At first, no one believes Nate, who
breaks his leg trying to pursue what he saw from his bedroom window. But
then there's another, and another. An unknown monster has been spotted
roaming the Kingdom after dark. It's ghastly, it's quick, and it might
even have giant tentacles. Or claws. Or wings. Okay, there might be some
varied testimonies on what exactly this monster looks like.
Forget Halloween--the newly minted Monster Mashers will go to any
lengths to protect the Kingdom and uncover this mystery. But how did the
monster get here? What does it want? And mostly importantly, who is
behind its creation?
The Cardboard Kingdom: Roar of the Beast was created, organized, and
drawn by Chad Sell with writing from nine other authors: Jay Fuller,
David DeMeo, Katie Schenkel, Molly Muldoon, Vid Alliger, Manuel
Betancourt, Michael Cole, Cloud Jacobs, and Barbara Perez Marquez.
