'Geez, Narwhal and Jellyfish are adorable. 'An utterly enchanting start to a series that’s bound to be popular among young readers' - Starred Review, School Library Journal Swimmingly delightful and a guaranteed smile-maker' – Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews The incessant charm and unabashed joy should make this an easy sell. 'Undersea adventures have never been so darn cute …. The perfect first book for young readers, just moving on from picture books, discovering the joys of friendship, working together and the power of imagination. And finally, Narwhal and Jelly read the best book ever! Then Narwhal and Jelly form their own pod of awesomeness with their ocean friends. In the first, Jelly learns that Narwhal is a really good friend. Join Narwhal and Jelly as they discover the whole wide ocean together.Ī wonderfully silly early graphic novel series featuring three short stories and a super fun ocean fact page – and joke page too! The two might not have a lot in common, but they do they love waffles, parties and adventures. The most loveable duo since Frog and Toad' – Dav Pilkey, bestselling author of Dogman and Captain Underpants Readers ready for underwater goofiness of the non-SpongeBob variety will be eager for more adventures from this duo.

'It's an imagination book, Jelly!' Narwhal explains. Bantering dialogue entertains throughout, but the book's best moment might belong to the third story, when Narwhal lends Jelly his 'favorite book in the whole wide water,' which is blank (Clanton gives the joke maximum impact by including two blank pages). The cast grows in the second tale as Narwhal amasses an eclectic pod of sea creatures who grin broadly as they get their honorary narwhal horns (sorry, tusk-teeth).

Clanton outlines his heroes in rough pencil and colors them digitally Narwhal resembles a floating comma, Jelly a semicircle with dangly tentacles creating a loose, off-the-cuff aquatic environment.

'It's actually more of a tusk-tooth,' Narwhal replies good-naturedly. 'What is up with that horn?' asks a frowning Jelly. In the first story, Narwhal befriends Jelly, a jellyfish, even though Jelly has never met a narwhal and Narwhal has never met a jellyfish. Clanton (Something Extraordinary) introduces an imaginative and self-confident narwhal in a bubbly trio of comics.
