About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is looking for a high-energy escape that celebrates the power of friendship and the idea that every member of a team brings something unique to the table. It is an ideal pick for reluctant readers or fans of the Last Kids on Earth series who want to see sidekicks step into the spotlight. The story follows Quint, a brilliant young inventor, and Dirk, a former bully turned protector, as they embark on a post-apocalyptic quest filled with monsters and gadgets. At its heart, this graphic novel explores how different personality types: the 'brain' and the 'brawn': can collaborate effectively by respecting each other's strengths. While the setting is a zombie and monster apocalypse, the tone remains lighthearted, humorous, and focused on loyalty. It is perfectly suited for kids aged 8 to 12 who enjoy action-packed adventures that emphasize resilience and the value of having a best friend by your side.
