About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is obsessed with how things work, loves to take things apart, or has a boundless curiosity about the world beneath their feet. It is the perfect bridge for the reader who fluctuates between wanting hard facts and craving a high-stakes adventure. Leo Geo is a scientist-explorer who uses logic and tools to navigate a fantastical journey to the Earth's core. The story follows Leo as he tunnels through geological layers, encountering both real scientific concepts and imaginary monsters. It beautifully balances the 'scary' parts of exploring the unknown with a steady focus on resilience and problem-solving. This vertical graphic novel is ideal for children aged 7 to 10, especially those who might be intimidated by traditional blocks of text but are captivated by visual storytelling and intricate diagrams. It celebrates the idea that being 'smart' is just as heroic as being 'strong.'
