6/2/2023 0 Comments Mouse guard by david petersenIt’s a decidedly different read to your average superhero comic books, but the heroic and quite adult themes are very much present in David Petersen’s work. However, I believe that being young at heart is absolutely sufficient to properly appreciate the Mouse Guard story. Ola: Don’t forget it’s my find! □ It’s indeed a perfect comic book for all ages 7 and up – first, it definitely helps if you can read on your own ), and second, the plot, themes and execution are best understood when one is at least a tiny bit learned in the ways of the world, having read or listened to Hobbit, for example, or at least made a passing acquaintance with the material culture of medieval times… On the other hand, the educational aspects and the straightforwardness of the plot suggest a younger cant to the target audience. I’m not going to leave the verdict for the final parts, I’ll admit straight away: I really like David Petersen’s Eisner-winning Mouse Guard series. This is a series of graphic novels for everyone to enjoy. Piotrek: I was very satisfied with myself when, recently, my little niece asked: why is it only uncle Piotr who knows comics? I try to keep Madzia (her sisters are too young) supplied with age-appropriate comics, stuff like Zita the Spacergirl or Yotsuba&, which means I get to read them, out loud and often multiple times □ And, since I’m the one to choose, it’s usually something I enjoy myself, but obviously, not things I read in my own reading time.
