pickThis is an absolute must read for any big fans of Tolkien and Lewis. It‘s the story of their friendship told as a graphic novel with excursions into the creation of the fantasy genre and more. It‘s part biography, part fantastical tale, and part choose your own adventure. I love that it explores the friendship, but it also gives info about both men‘s childhoods, marriage, and time as soldiers. It‘s wonderfully done.
pickI loved this gorgeous graphic novel exploring the friendship between C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien and how they influenced each other creatively. Hendrix also delves into the meaning of myth and other types of stories. Beautifully, brilliantly done.

Love the great range of disabilities and body types shown here. Although the main focus is on physical limitations, a lot of the advice is applicable to other kinds of disabilities too.

Raised lots of interesting questions. Neufeld's art was good and sometimes unexpectedly clever and funny.
Didn't expect to meet my favourite poet (Yeats) in this book.
