Reviews
Devilishly funny - Dante N. Ferno is a winner!
It's a fast paced, funny adventure for readers aged 7+. Highly recommended.
If you’re looking for madcap adventures to lure your reluctant readers out of comic books and into chapter books, then this anarchic, devilishly funny and highly illustrated new series from cartoonist and debut children’s author Brian Gordon is the picture perfect choice.
With a daft plot and larger-than-life characters, this hilarious chapter book also explores some serious issues, such as dealing with bullies, developing resilience, and making friends.
