First of all, I'd like to say that the art contained within this book is incredible. It's filled with details, bright colors, and expressive characters. The theme of intelligent children solving mysteries and having adventures is one that I greatly enjoy--and reminds me of my own childhood. Not only is the artwork and writing top-notch, but one of the best things about this book is how it teaches the reader about real science and history.I really appreciate the themes of environmentalism in this first book. It's addressed nicely, without being overbearing or illogical. Furthermore, this is a very important message to deliver to children--and what better way than through such a delightfully well-done book. Even after reading the whole thing, the artwork still captivated me with it's unique style. By the end, I was quite sad to see that the adventure was over. In short, this is one incredible book with gorgeous artwork and one that I would highly recommend to anyone with children--though you may have to fight over who gets to read it first.
