Amy Unbounded : Belondweg Blossoming
Attribution
written and illustrated by Rachel Hartman ; introduction by Linda Medley ; production assistance by Lisa HurleyPublication Details
BookPug House Press2002Description
Amy Unbounded: Belondweg Blossoming collects issues 7-12 of Rachel Hartman’s award-winning comic book, and includes an introduction by Linda Medley, a dramatis personae for new readers, and a few extra pages of silliness at the back. Join Amy as she dances the Two-foot, wears a really ugly bridesmaid’s dress, becomes friends (in spite of everything!) with Bran, imitates the patron saint of ducks, flees from rampaging sheep, learns that love doesn’t always conquer all, chugs buttermilk, and begins to understand that even Belondweg didn’t have to save the world all by herself.
