The Lumberjanes are working on a new badge. This involves teamwork. Of course the best way this group works together is fighting overwhelming odds with supernatural forces. There are pirates, selkies and an alternate dimension. But as long as they learn the right knots to tie they will be ok.
When I started reading, I wasn’t sure I was going to be a fan because they were going back to the water (I wasn’t the biggest fan of Vol. 5: Band Together) but this one turned out ok! I kinda liked the storyline with the selkies (didn’t know that was a thing) and it was cool to see Molly and Ripley be the heroes! (Even though, I’m still not sure how they ended up with a pirate ship so providentially.) Still, it’s a really cute series!
Every issue in this series is a gift to humankind, with their individual, exciting stories, BUT. The series as a whole is fantastic. The underlying mythology just grows more and more captivating with each installment. If you've read the previous issues: READ THIS ONE IMMEDIATELY. If you haven't: WHAT IS STOPPING YOU GET ON IT.
The girls are playing a very intense game of capture the flag. Honestly, I was just really confused the entire issue. Had no idea what was going on. It was spastic. Hopefully the next issue will be better? But generally it was cute and silly but I wasn’t sure what was happening.
The five girls take on their latest paranormal foes -- selkies and a werebear -- while trying to work as a team for their knot-tying merit badge among portals and whirlpools around their camp. The main characters are expressive and fun, the premise is funny, and the chapter openings that incorporate pieces of the "Lumberjanes Field Manual" are clever. A good choice for upper middle grade readers looking for a graphic novel adventure. This volume will mean more if readers start at number one.
The Lumberjanes (Jo, Molly, Mal, April, and Ripley) help fight the craziness that is overtaking their summer camp. A fun, cool story about a group of friends.
#6 in the series. A game of capture the flag, and someone has magical powers.
As the campers work on the knot-tying badges, they have to deal with a feud between a seagoing werewolf and the selkies who've captured her ship. Plus a bear demigod. And some dimensional portals that keep opening. So a typical couple of days for Lumberjanes. Way fun.
First, these covers are super confusing - this is the same cover as ‘Sink or Swim’, but a totally different story. Second, still in love, but still prefer the books with multiple stories in them - one alone is SO short.
El atrapa la bandera es muy de campamento y si a eso le sumamos que a estas chicas poco les hace falta para una nueva aventura express ... Riley es un personaje que por momentos amo y me hace reir y otras veces me parece demasiado "infantil" al actuar.
So cute!! YA graphic novel series, "lady-type folks" youth camp with queers and POC in a magical forest on adventures learning about feelings and the outdoors and etc.
