Such a fun story with the sassiest little witch and her pals. I loved this short adventure with a big task of saving their village, it was the perfect length to keep kids engaged without losing their interest along the way. The characters were cute and funny and often had me laughing out loud, that Hubert is quite the comedian. I appreciated the sweet connection she had with her dad and his gentle support of her dream to be a witch even if it seemed impossible. The illustrations were wonderfully detailed and beautifully depicted to add that bit of whimsy to their journey and full of so much life and colorful action it would draw anyone into Brume’s adventure. The sweet narration of Hubert was one of my favorite elements guiding the story in a clever way. I’m excited to read more of her spell worthy adventures and adored the informational addition at the end adding a bit of history to round out the foundation of who Brume is.

I love Brume! The whole adventure was absolutely delightful, and I look forward to reading more adventures. I kept thinking, as I read this, that it reminded me of a cartoon or family-friendly movie. I hope one day this is turned into a fun Pixar film. It was a fantastical, funny, and wholesome story about a witch, her pet pig, and the dragon she sets out to conquer.

At the end of the book, the authors describe their village in France, and their inspiration for this book, which I also enjoyed. I think it's inspiring to see where other writers get their ideas and hope that children will enjoy their journey as well.

YES yes yes. A much needed graphic novel for kids looking for witch graphic novels! I can't believe I have to wait unitl September to get this book in the hands of eager middle graders.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
