Our Review

This middle-grade graphic novel delivers a thrilling adventure where the New York Public Library comes alive after dark, blending Night at the Museum excitement with The Land of Stories magic as siblings Page and Turner discover their father's rare book holds the key to a dangerous secret. The twins, often left to their own devices while their parents travel, find themselves plunged into a high-stakes mission involving a mysterious Night Librarian and a cast of characters who've leapt right off the pages. Christopher Lincoln's vibrant illustrations bring this nocturnal world to life, creating an immersive reading experience for young graphic novel enthusiasts. The story masterfully weaves together themes of family, responsibility, and the literal power of stories.

What sets this fantasy mystery apart is its clever premise that book characters have their own lives and conflicts after the library closes, creating a rich playground for imagination that will particularly resonate with voracious readers. The sibling dynamic between Page and Turner provides a relatable anchor, while the high-concept adventure delivers constant visual excitement and plot twists. This is the kind of story that doesn't just entertain but might just inspire a new appreciation for libraries and the hidden worlds within books, making it a standout addition to the young adult graphic novel landscape that both parents and kids can enthusiastically share.
