THE TEA DRAGON FESTIVAL by Katie O’Neill

Описание: If you’re not already reading Katie O’Neill’s adorable graphic novels and playing the adorable related card games and digging into her picture book DEWDROP … get thee to the nearest bookstore! Or comic shop! THE TEA DRAGON FESTIVAL is the second book in the Tea Dragon trilogy, with the third book due out in September of 2020. This second book is something of a standalone, in that it takes place in the same world as the first and upcoming third graphic novels, but it follows different characters. Ring uses they/them pronouns and the entire town speaks in sign language so that Lesa feels at home, and it’s just … the sweetest daisy of a book possible. The series is often described as “gentle” and I think that’s very true; if there is a message in any of these books, it’s to be kind to one another, make new friends, and support those around you. All depicted in the most winsome and vivid art imaginable.

I loved the platonic friendship at the heart of THE TEA DRAGON FESTIVAL and I simply can’t wait for the conclusion of this trilogy in THE TEA DRAGON TAPESTRY! Although … I guess I can since I have to. And I’m not happy that we only get three of these books. Somebody put in a word with O’Neill, please? I need more Rinn, STAT.
