I was intrigued last month by the arrival of The Savage, a new novel written by and illustrated by the perennially unsettling . My impression from the cover was of something like a Gaiman-esque Stig of the Dump. This slim book does have shades of that, but it also has a great deal more.

Imagine this new graphic novel adaptation of Neil Gaiman's Coraline to be your own private movie; no one will be around to shush you when you shriek unexpectedly.

There's been a lot of well-deserved hype around The Dangerous Book for Boys, and subsequently The Daring Book for Girls.
Another book that might fall just beneath the radar deserves a good look. Howtoons, published by the creators of the magazines Make and Craft, teaches kids how to make their own cool toys. Using a graphic novel format, the book follows the exploits of Tucker and Celine, a brother and sister pair who decide to make their own fun.
