Description
As an aspiring cartoonist, Zelda has always dreamed of attending an art summer camp, and this year she finally gets to go! But when she arrives to Make It Summer Camp, she’s horrified to see the easels and sketchboards have been replaced with dodgeball and calisthenics. The camp is under new, suspicious management that’s turned it into an extreme sports nightmare.
Determined to salvage her summer, Zelda escapes to a secluded corner of the island. Here she can finally draw in peace. At least until she stumbles into a portal to a fantastic world!
Welcome to Monster Island, Zelda!
There she makes a connection with baby kaiju Minilla and discovers the beauty of these legendary creatures. However, all is not well on Monster Island. Great evils are stirring and if Zelda can’t protect their home, the kaiju will unleash their wrath on the world.

HIS HIDING LOOK!!!!! OH MY GOSH SO CUTE! I am all for creating Kaiju/Godzilla content for younger audiences and this is a good fit. It's reminiscent of the old Pokémon cartoons and is full of fun characters.
Also, my Queen and love showing up was just the best. I want to go to this camp so badly...well the camp at the end not the start lol.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!
Okay so first, I love Godzilla. No, let me emphasize that I LOVE Godzilla. Everything Godzilla. Movies. Comics. Books. Manga. Games. Video essays by randos on the internet. I can't get enough. I knew that, no matter what, I would go into this 100% biased and unable to put it down. That said, this exceeded my expectations! The story was great. The art was great. My precious innocent baby girl is in it. It's perfect :)

Review
What a cute graphic novel with a great message of friendship and protecting the environment! I loved seeing all the girls grow as friends! The art style was amazing, and I loved the full page spreads. The character designs are so different, while also working great together. One issue I had is everyone seemed really chill with Minizilla and all the monsters right away. I've never been in a situation where I've encountered a baby Godzilla, but I feel like I'd be a little bit concerned. Overall, it was a super fun read and people should totally check it out when it comes out in August!
Thank you Netgalley and IDW Publishing for anARC in exchange for an honest review :)
