Awesome 'Possum, Volume 4
$25.00
Description
Thirty-nine creators explore the natural world, plants and animals from around, and inside, the globe. For example, you'll explore:
- Rafflesia, or the corpse flower, with Shing Yin Khor
- The komodo dragon and Stephen R. Bisette's (Swamp Thing, Tyrant) first experience seeing them, as drawn by Ross Wood Studlar
- The ecology of A'ay Chu (Slim's River) in Alaska with Rachel Ford
Jon Chad, creator of Volcanoes: Fire and Life (First Second, 2016), wrote the introduction, connecting entertainment and education through the Fantastic Four and cooling rubber. Tillie Walden (Spinning, On a Sun Beam) drew the cover inks.
Praise for Volume 4
"You'll witness love of the natural world with every story, and your own love for it will grow with every page." —Jim Ottaviani, author of The Imitation Game
"I love Awesome 'Possum, and even though I have been writing about this sort of stuff for much of my life, I learn new things on almost every page." —Richard Conniff, author of The Species Seekers
"Awesome 'Possum's eclectic comic styles mirror the variety of life they portray—from ghost slugs and bad-luck lemurs to parasitic plants and a bird with a shoe for a bill. It's biology broken down into bite-size stories—ideal for kids and adults alike," —Mike Shanahan, author of Gods, Wasps and Stranglers
