About this title

Review:

Praise for Emily the Strange – Lost Days

“I had only heard of Emily The Strange in passing, and didn't really know much about the books, comics, or product line However, I'm already in love with the character and the way the stories are told. It reminds me of a very intelligent version of Greg Heffley from the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, except that instead of it being almost entirely graphic novel, it's part novel, part graphics, and part a whole bunch of other interesting stuff.”
Amazon Review

“This has quickly become one of my new favorite books, and I've recommended it to several people already. It's a great read for anyone with an afternoon free, but its target age will be 9–13 year olds.”
Amazon Review

“Hard to imagine a better book”

She is the featured character in a series of comic books from Dark Horse Comics and four hardbound Chronicle Books.
