Review
"There's no shortage of excitement in these Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style graphic novels. The format ensures that they are more about the journeys than the destinations, as every couple of pages end in a cliff-hanger. Readers must decide how to proceed, guiding the story. In Coyote, children must help the animal escape a confrontation with an angry bear. In the more successful second book, Rabbit tries to prove to Fox that he is the cleverest animal in the forest. As one might expect based on the format, some of the endings are extremely abrupt. The narratives branch out fairly randomly--readers concerned with making the 'right' decision to continue the story needn't deliberate too long. Loosely based on folktales from the Native-American and African-American traditions, these books may prove an effective gateway for further exploration of those genres. The illustrations are bold with a bright color palette. Coyote in particular has a decidedly animation-inspired feel. For beefing up reluctant-reader offerings, these books are worth a look." --School Library Journal
--Journal"This series, written by Chris Schweizer and various illustrators, is a combination of choose-your-own-adventure and graphic novel style books that uses traditional trickster characters from African and Native American folklore. Each title puts the reader in charge of the characters' fates, for better or worse. In addition to the adventurous nature of these books, an element of also humor exists, as the main characters continually try to outwit others. The bright, cartoonish illustrations add to the fast-pace and readers could reread each story many times with different endings. While a majority of each book is written in graphic novel form, there are also a number of pages with more traditional quotation marks to denote speech. This could help reluctant readers make the transition to more challenging texts. The interactivity of this series would make it a fun addition to a library's graphic novel section." --Library Media Connection
