My rating:
Without spoiling Stormdancer, Jay Kristoff’s companion children’s book The Little Stormdancer delivers the charming tale of Yukiko and her companion griffon (‘thunder tiger’) Buruu in a condensed, simplified version, weaving the familiar themes of environmental protection and animal welfare also found in the full-length novel.
The repeated motifs, clear positive messages, and adorable illustrations ensure that this will be a picture book repeatedly read to my own children. Whether they like it or not.
This book was a gift to those who attended Stormdancer’s launch party.
