Description

|
|
|
Originally published in 1904, L. Frank Baum's short tale is here reinterpreted as a compact graphic novel for readers 8 and up. Not far from the Laughing Valley where Santa and his magical helpers live there stands a huge mountain that contains the Cave of Demons. Selfishness, Envy, Hatred, and Repentance conspire to kidnap the old man who's been making children so happy and well behaved. But they don't reckon on the determination of Santa's friends—the pixies, fairies, knooks, and ryls. Comics writer and illustrator Alex Robinson throws plenty of pop-culture references and visual humor into his fast-paced telling, pictured in rich black ink drawings.
