Peanut Butter and Jelly by Ben Clanton from Penguin Random House Canada, is book 3 in this cute graphic series which is due out 27 March, 2018. The art is super simple and adorable.

It's a short book, 64 pages, with 2 small stories, a mini-comic 'by Peanut Butter and Floyd', and a 2 page spread with facts about sea creatures great and small from blue whales to sea cucumbers. There is also a useful table of contents in the front end of the book.

I try hard to avoid comparisons with books I'm reviewing, but this series reminds me in a very good way of Dav Pilkey's Captain Underpants, silly and fun and with good underlying messages which aren't preachy and don't get in the way of a good story.

The primary audience for Narwhal and Jelly is in the 6-9 year old range, but quite fun for adults as well. It would make a good read-together, short and sweet (with lots of scope for silly dialogue and voices for the reader). :)

Four stars, adorable!

This is the first book I've read in the Narwhal and Jelly series and it won't be the last! A fun story about friendship and favourite foods (a great choice to read to a picky eater!) with lively illustrations. I really like how you got not only the main story but a comic drawn by Narwhal and Jelly, plus some fun facts that relate to the theme of food. Definitely a good choice for young graphic novel fans.

This is the third book in the Narwhal and Jelly series of graphic novels. To give you an idea of grade level, the first book in the series was around a Guided Reading level M which makes it an end of 2nd grade beginning of 3rd grade level book for an average reader.

If you aren't familiar with this series, these are some of the cutest juvenile graphic novels you'll run into. This third volume is setup with 3 short stories, a fact page and a comic strip within the book purportedly created by the characters. All of these parts are related but can also be read as their own short stories if necessary. I feel that you are also safe reading these out of order. This is not a series where you must read the first one to know what is happening in the third.

They are silly and cute, the illustrations are bright and uncluttered. I work in a library and recommend the series often, this one is yet another great addition to the series.

Loved the font,
loved the images,
loved the mini comic in the middle of the book,
loved Narwhal and Jelly (both very lovable),
loved the page of facts halfway through,
loved that the facts were given in a fun and memorable way,
Overall - ridiculously adorable, a slam dunk of a series!
Loved it!

The series is getting progressively more goofy, but I know some kids at my library who would really enjoy it.

I absolutely love the Narwhal books by Ben Clanton. This third installment is just as cute as the first two. Simple illustrations yet incredibly cute. I hope there are many more books in this series.
