Eleven year-old Mirka is an Orthodox Jewish girl who is one spunky, clever, independent and courageous girl! She yearns to fight a dragon and is constantly going through her Big Book of MONSTERS. She encounters many conflicts including one with a Pig!
(Jews don't have pigs.) You will learn about being Jewish in this book, though not in a preachy way, just incidentally as the story moves along.
This graphic novel has some fantasy and mythological elements to it and readers ages nine and up will enjoy following Mirka on her quest.
