The Picks:

Monster Allergy Volume 1 House Of Monsters GN – Insight Comics brings over a new series that’s nothing to sneeze at. Oldmill Village isn’t your average quiet little town. Elena Potato has just moved in, and is about to find out there’s a lot more going on than meets the eye. Zick, her new neighbor, is a strange kid who is allergic to just about everything, including one that allows him to see ghosts and monsters, and Oldmill is practically swimming in monstrous phenomena. Together, Zick and Elena set out to investigate the strange goings-on, including a recent uptick in missing pets, a dangerous man-eating plant, and a sinister salesman who could pose the ultimate threat to be humans and monster alike! Originally developed for Disney Italy in the mid 2000s, this series is making its American debut. It’s a great addition to middle school collections.

Princess Ninjas TP – Silver Dragon Books introduces the new defenders of the kingdom of Chiyome. Bridget, Megan and Elyce are three foster sisters and Princesses in the kingdom of Chiyome. But, in this world where magic, ninjas and evil in all shapes and forms exist, these three princesses become something more to protect the citizens of their realm. They become the Princess Ninjas. With their sidekick Turtle-bear, the trio must work together to do whatever needs to be done to protect their realm from all threats to the peace of the land. They will also learn that being a ninja isn’t just sneaking, magic and cool karate-moves. It’s also about honor, loyalty, and learning the true meaning of family. This first volume features three stories filled with action, family and friendship, and is from the new all ages imprint of indy publisher Zenoscope Entertainment. It’s a series both boys and girls will enjoy.
