Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 3–5—Yam is a spirited cherub of a boy dressed in a charming head-to-toe jumpsuit. He and his quirky friends cavort around the tropical island of Leche de la Luna, having surreal adventures involving friendly cupcakes, tambourine-shaking flowers, and magic potions. The wordless panels are quite effective with the tenderly drawn art powerfully conveying nuanced moments. A solid addition to any graphic novel collection.—Lauren Anduri, Brooklyn Public Library, NY

Product Description

Top Shelf is proud to present an all new, "silent" all-ages graphic novel series! Yam and his fun-loving friends live on the remote tropical island of Leche de la Luna, and are always getting mixed up in surreal adventures. Whether it's encountering cupcakes that spring to life, befriending potted flowers, or exploring the mysterious ruins on the island, this small boy in his hooded, footy pajamas always ends up having a blast with his friends. The debut graphic novel, simply titled Yam, is anchored by the full-length story "Toy with My Dreams," in which Yam develops a crush on a girl much to old for him, but ends up being able to communicate with her in his dreams. The graphic novel also contains a full-color section and several short stories which have seen print in Nickelodeon Magazine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!, August 14, 2008
Me and my children love it. It is so cute and the stories actually kept my attention too! I love the way he uses non-verbal communication to tell the stories. My kids can not stop reading it. Great work! You can tell Corey Barba is going to go far in the children's book industry.
