A young lady wakes up in a pond in the forest with no memory of her life or even her name. While she is trying to remember, and not drown, a young man with a swans wing in place of his right arm rescues her. He calls her "Bambi" and she realizes that is her name and this young man seems very familiar...

Bambi is only one volume and 176 pages, so the suspense and mystery are not drawn out. What is interesting about this story is that most of the story has already taken place when you start the book, and it is shown through flash backs. It is based on Hans Christian Anderson's "The Wild Swans", but with a Korean twist and the author's original take on the story. "The Wild Swans" has always been one of my favorite of Anderson's stories, and I think that this version did it justice. The art work is very detailed and lovely, a common theme for manhwa. I enjoyed looking at the art, but if you read lots of manhwa, this title is probably not that special (artwise anyway).

Bambi is a sweet story with lovely art, and if you enjoy Shojo manga, you will probably enjoy this book. If you like Bambi, you should also check out The Missing White Dragon, which is an original story by the author of Bambi and just as good.
