Such a beautiful story, I loved every page of this gorgeous graphic novel. The characters were divine, and the story was so lovely. This series feels like a warm hug.

I won't lie, I will probably read anything Katie O'Neill writes, her stories are filled with so much heart and her art style is beautiful. I really enjoyed how this installment brought all of the tea dragon stories together, but I did want more when I reached the end. I wish there was going to be more in the series/world simply because I feel like there was so much potential for more to be added to the story. Still, it was wonderful to see all of the characters again and see where they are in life and where life is taking them. While I did want more, I still loved the story overall and fell even more in love with tea dragons.

As always, Katie O'Neill's art is absolutely unmatched. It is so cute and atmospheric and I would hang every single panel up in my house if I could. That being said, the plot of this one didn't do a ton for me? It definitely wasn't bad in the slightest, but it just wasn't especially memorable.

These books are such an escape! I absolutely love these books so much. The art is so beautiful and the story was super heartwarming. The theme of the story was also really lovely. So uplifting and cute to read. Definitely looking forward to more by the author!

I really love these books. I find them adorable and touching and absolutely beautiful. I loved the story of this one, about finding your own path and who you are when things change. It makes my heart melt and there is so much natural diversity which is honestly just perfection. I think everybody should read these books.

I can't believe this is over. It's one of the best graphic novels I've ever read (right beside Heartstopper). It's adorable, the illustrations are gorgeous and it talks about heavy stuff too such as grief, dissabilities and acceptance. Oh, I love it so so much. Even bought the trilogy for my personal collection.

The Tea Dragon series is probably the most wholesome this I've ever read. This installment was, as, always, amazing. The art style and the colors were incredibly, the characters were lovable as always (I would absolutely die for them all) and I couldn't stop reading. I can't wait for more!

The conclusion to the Tea Dragon series was as precious as ever!

It was really nice to see themes of grief and belonging explored in this installment through O'Neill's signature style. The artwork was truly stunning and brought me such joy. I also really appreciated the tea dragon history at the end for fans!

My only complaint is that I wish there was even more story development. I just love this world and these characters so much and could never get enough of them!

This was such a beautiful story, just like the other two Tea Dragon books. It's such an emotional story about a Tea Dragon who has lost their owner and how Greta tries to cheer them up. And at the same time the story of Minette trying to figure out what her life is and what she's supposed to do. I didn't think that Minette's story would resonate so much with me, but I'm kind of confused aswell. It's not even remotely the same as her story, but it really helped me. I really hope Katie O'Neill writes more Tea Dragon stories because I love them so much.

The third book in the Tea Dragon Society series is a heartwarming and welcome addition to a series that is lovely and touching. I have adored the other two books in the series and this book does a wonderful job of spinning a conclusion that feels whole and right. Once again Katie O'Neill's illustrations will have you sighing with happiness and joy. While their is no grumpy mountain chamomile that is okay because the other tea dragons shine in their own right. If you have a story about friendship, tea dragons, and finding your path in life, all the while set among dreamy illustrations, this book is for you!

‘The tea dragon tapestry’ is the third book in a graphic novel series by Katie O’Neill. The art was absolutely gorgeous. I probably could have read this in a language I didn’t understand and still would have loved looking at the images. O’Neill has particular eye for color which essentially made me want resize pretty much every single page and put it on my wall. The story was sweet and whimsical, even though one absolutely has to consider that this is aimed at young readers. I can’t wait for my daughter to be a bit older so we can read all of her books together.

Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this graphic novel!

Rating: 5 stars

I adore Katie O'Neill comics and this one is no exception! In "The Tea Dragon Tapestry" we are back following Minette, Greta and the gang as they go about their lives and care for the absolutely adorable tea dragons (I want one for myself!). In this graphic novel, we learn more about Minette's past and Greta's future ambitions, with all the amazing morals and diversity that are always present in Katie O'neill's work.

All I can say is that I can't wait for more books in this world (or a completely new world that O'Neill creates!) and I highly recommend this series to anyone looking for adorable characters, stunning artwork and fabulous storylines.

Another amazing installment in this world. Katie O'neill deserves all the praise for this wonderful, heartwarming story. This was a joy to read. The illustrations are beautiful and captivating. This is another heart-warming, whimsical story that I did not want to end.

This series is beyond anything I could have ever dreamt up. I could make a list longer than my arm of the ways that it is so, so inclusive and accepting. This is something that I highly recommend to everyone, whether it sounds like your type of thing or not, because I learnt so much from this that I never expected to. The illustrations in this are also to die for, the tea dragon as are the cutest little things!! I loved how this book wrapped the trilogy up,, and while I'm sad that it's ending, I know that this was the perfect way for it to conclude and I thoroughly look forward to rereading them all together!!

I received an e-arc from Oni Press through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Like the rest of the graphic novels in the Tea Dragon series, The Tea Dragon Tapestry is absolutely stunning and a beautiful story. I loved this novel just as much as the other two. The artwork is amazing and the story was uplifting as always. There is a lot to learn from these graphic novels about finding your passion, finding where home is, and finding where you fit in.

I love Katie O'Neill's graphic novels and definitely want to check out her other graphic novels. I just haven't been able to get around to checking them out with the 50 million other books on my TBR, but I will get there one day!

Katie O'Neill is AMAZING. She tackles tough topics with grace and her illustrations are absolutely stunning. These may be Children's/Middle-Grade books, but they are so much more than that. Although I would read any of her books for the illustrations alone (SO BEAUTIFUL!!) I also love how each book features a lesson for younger readers that includes tougher topics all while providing such a diverse group of characters. Each story fosters growth, love, and acceptance.
A beautiful story that is perfect for all ages!

This series just keeps getting better it builds off of the other two book and I followed this one much easier then the first. I am in love with the illustrations. I could look at a 100 of these books. The story was one with merit it was about grief and feeling lost and finding purpose and I loved the over all theme. Fantastic book, not only for the pictures but also the writing.

Like its previous installments, THE TEA DRAGON TAPESTRY is adorable, affirming, and a pure delight to read from start to finish. I will sorely miss Greta and Min and all the other charming inhabitants of this world (especially those dragons!), but I'm excited to read whatever Katie O'Neill crafts next.

First, I thank the people and publishers in NetGalley for letting me read this ahead of publication.

Second, this is a beautiful conclusion to a beautiful series and its kinda hard to say something new about the art and story that hasnt been said by the countless readers, and still, i must try.
This edition is stunning, the story is touching in heartwarming ways, the characters are beautiful, and i could not a find a flaw if i tried. It ties many plot point from the previous edition and gives a nice conclusion to them. I would also like to add I didnt expect to me so emotionally touched by the characters and i certainly didnt expect to cry. It was such a beautiful and moving journey, I once again thank netgalley for letting me read this, it was an amazing experience.

Yet again, Katie O’Neill delivers us a warm hug in the form of her beautiful art and wholesome stories.

As I say with every review of this series, you will find no cuter art style than this one. It is filled with so much vibrancy and joy.

The storyline is also incredibly wholesome and really cheered me up. This one did have a bit more of a somber feel to it but in a heart warming way.

There were some really great themes about change, loss and moving on that seemed really helpful to any child struggling from those issues.

Basically, if you haven’t already, pick up some of O’Neill’s work. I promise you won’t regret it.
