But when trouble comes to find her, it comes in spades. A human baby has arrived in the realm of the trolls, and nobody knows where it came from, but Bera seems to be the only person who doesn’t want it dead. There’s nothing to it but to return the adorable little thing to its parents.

From noted picture book illustrator and graphic novelist (Maddy Kettle) Eric Orchard comes Bera the One-Headed Troll, a delightful new fantasy adventure with all the sweetness, spookiness, and satisfaction of your favorite childhood bedtime story.
When I picked this up, I worried it might be scary or gory, but it was nothing of the sort. It was completely delightful. Bera is a sweet soul.
Faced with the baby’s arrival, she tries to do the right thing. On her journey she encounters all kids of creatures who want to harm the baby, but she doesn’t let them harm the tiny human.
This is a delightful graphic novel for elementary school aged readers.
