Another brilliant Celtic story from the creators of The Book of Kells and Song of the Sea。 This art is magnificent， of course。 And the story is powerful。 Just a bit of environmentalism thrown in to a story about defeating Cromwell。 You will love Robyn and Mabh， and be rooting for them all the way。 My 15yo son read it three times。 I hope they will make graphic novels of the first two films！

In a land where wolves are the enemies， Robyn Goodfellowe and her father strive to rid the town of the beasts in the woods。 One day， however， Robyn meets a girl who is a WolfWalker; half girl， half wolf。 Robyn's eyes are opened to how the wolves are being deprived of their lands by the townspeople， and she forms a deep bond with the WolfWalker。 This graphic novel is beautifully illustrated and full of fantasy， friendship， and the right amount of dry wit。 This is the first graphic novel I have re In a land where wolves are the enemies， Robyn Goodfellowe and her father strive to rid the town of the beasts in the woods。 One day， however， Robyn meets a girl who is a WolfWalker; half girl， half wolf。 Robyn's eyes are opened to how the wolves are being deprived of their lands by the townspeople， and she forms a deep bond with the WolfWalker。 This graphic novel is beautifully illustrated and full of fantasy， friendship， and the right amount of dry wit。 This is the first graphic novel I have read since I was a little girl， and I absolutely loved it！ It was so fun and fast-paced， and I found that I couldn't put it down。 The characters are adventurous and courageous， and I love the story of friendship found in this novel。 I also loved that this graphic novel had a deeper meaning that conveyed the importance of overcoming prejudices。 Content Warning: language 。。。more

This is a graphic novel that has historical fiction and folklore intertwined。 The graphics are beautiful。 It is a cartoon I'd like to see。 It is about friendship and trusting others。 Kids may not understand why her dad said she should be a scullery maid and do as she is told。 They may not understand the relationship between England and Ireland。 This is a graphic novel that has historical fiction and folklore intertwined。 The graphics are beautiful。 It is a cartoon I'd like to see。 It is about friendship and trusting others。 Kids may not understand why her dad said she should be a scullery maid and do as she is told。 They may not understand the relationship between England and Ireland。 。。。more

This is a great companion to the film。 The art style works really well in this format。 My 8 year old who would watch the movie as many times in a row as we'd let her also really enjoys this graphic novel。 It is frequent bedtime reading for her。 This is a great companion to the film。 The art style works really well in this format。 My 8 year old who would watch the movie as many times in a row as we'd let her also really enjoys this graphic novel。 It is frequent bedtime reading for her。 。。。more

For those of us who do not have Apple+ access， having the graphic novel is everything。 Thank you to my library for ordering it！ If you are a fan of the previous movies in the trilogy， you will know and love this style。 If you are new to Tomm Moore's work， I highly recommend looking into "Song of the Sea" and "Book of the Kells。"Reading a movie-to-book adaptation is sometimes tricky; things can get lost in the panels。 I loved this though。 For those of us who do not have Apple+ access， having the graphic novel is everything。 Thank you to my library for ordering it！ If you are a fan of the previous movies in the trilogy， you will know and love this style。 If you are new to Tomm Moore's work， I highly recommend looking into "Song of the Sea" and "Book of the Kells。"Reading a movie-to-book adaptation is sometimes tricky; things can get lost in the panels。 I loved this though。 。。。more

Beautiful art。 A simple children story with a twist。 I'm in love with the characters， and there's enough tension and realistic plot before the happy ending。 Wonderful🖤 Beautiful art。 A simple children story with a twist。 I'm in love with the characters， and there's enough tension and realistic plot before the happy ending。 Wonderful🖤 。。。more

I've wanted to see this movie for awhile （but it's on AppleTV， so that's that）。 I love this book。 It feels like Ireland to me: the wild and the history and the magic。 It makes me miss the Emerald Isle。 This is a beautiful story of two girls， both wild in their own way， and how they bond。 There is， of course， magic involved， but it's an excellent kind of magic， a kind that you don't get to see in a lot of fantasy。 I really love that Robyn， who is the girl who lives in society， is constantly quest I've wanted to see this movie for awhile （but it's on AppleTV， so that's that）。 I love this book。 It feels like Ireland to me: the wild and the history and the magic。 It makes me miss the Emerald Isle。 This is a beautiful story of two girls， both wild in their own way， and how they bond。 There is， of course， magic involved， but it's an excellent kind of magic， a kind that you don't get to see in a lot of fantasy。 I really love that Robyn， who is the girl who lives in society， is constantly questioning her father and if his actions are right。 I think that's a really important example to see in stories。 。。。more

I very much enjoy this studio's art style; it's instantly recognizable。 They seem to specialize in Ireland-and-nearby-based mythical creature stories。 More of this sort of thing， please！ I very much enjoy this studio's art style; it's instantly recognizable。 They seem to specialize in Ireland-and-nearby-based mythical creature stories。 More of this sort of thing， please！ 。。。more

Age rating: 9-12WolfWalkers is a graphic novel about a puritanic society where “work is prayer” and kids must stay inside the town walls because werewolf-like creatures inhabit the forest outside。 I liked the consistency of the world-building but thought the book was boring at times and disliked the too-easy fairytale ending。

Beautifully illustrated story。 I dislike in general wolves and werewolf stories。 This one was different。 I liked the story， how the relationship with wolves is built， the illustration and the characters。 It is an intense story。

So beautiful！！！ I got a bit more out of the graphic novel than the movie but I'm glad I watched it first because it was easier to follow knowing the story。 So beautiful！！！ I got a bit more out of the graphic novel than the movie but I'm glad I watched it first because it was easier to follow knowing the story。 。。。more

I loved this story and this artistic style。 However， I couldn't help imagining and longing to see the film while reading it because there really is so much captured in motion and sound in a Tomm Moore movie that a book can't match。 I loved this story and this artistic style。 However， I couldn't help imagining and longing to see the film while reading it because there really is so much captured in motion and sound in a Tomm Moore movie that a book can't match。 。。。more
