Reviews
Lorraine
Tamsin and the Deep is a graphic novel, excellently illustrated by Kate Brown and published by David Fickling Books in partnership with The Pheonix Comic. As a prolific reader of comics and graphic novels (Calvin and Hobbes was a particular favourite) when a teenager myself I can honestly say this is a great read for all ages if you like modern stories with fantasy and mystery. The story moves along at a fast pace and will appeal to reluctant teen readers as well as younger year groups. 96 pages / Ages 9+ / Reviewed by Lorraine Ansell, school librarian.
