(3) 1-3 Translated by Karen Li. Translated from French, this graphic novel for newly independent readers features tiny human Poppy and tiny panda Sam, who live together in a hollowed-out pumpkin in a garden of anthropomorphized plants and flowers. Their solution to the mystery of Basil's leaf nibbler also communicates a lesson in consent ("Everything tastes better when it's freely offered"). The book achieves accessibility through cute illustrations, large panels, and clear text.
