Kraken Me Up by Jeffrey Ebbeler
Izzie and her unusual pet make a big splash at the county fair in this punny easy reader comic from a beloved children's book illustrator and comics artist.Izzie can't wait to debut her pet at the county fair. While the other children have brought pigs or chickens, Izzie brought a...Kraken!
Even though everyone thinks Kraken is big and frightening, he is not. He's like Izzie, sweet and shy. Kraken and Izzie use creativity and humor to win over the crowd in this hilariously adorable comic. The variety of panel styles, speech bubbles, and fonts are all perfect for engaging developing readers.

Ebbeler, Jeffrey: - Jeffrey Ebbeler's parents always wanted to live on a farm. One day, they moved their family from the city suburbs to the country. Jeff's dad and uncles built their house and a barn. Just like the Gladstones in George the Hero Hound, they raised all kinds of animals and owned a rusty old tractor that hardly ever worked. Every once in a while, their neighbor's cows would break through the fence and feast on their cornfield. When Jeff's sister got a pony, everyone in the family wanted to give him a name, so they ended up calling him Rusty Dusty Rover Red George. (In this story, Jeff made George a dog, so George could help a bunch of city folk learn to be farmers, just like Jeff's family.) Jeff has illustrated (and occasionally writes) a number of picture books, including Arlo Rolled by Susan Pearson. He lives in Cincinnati with his wife and twin daughters.
