Staff Review of: Lamington Left Behind

Lamington Left Behind
by Andrea Innocent

Filled with great plot twists, talking mushrooms and some weird feral kids...

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to talk to animals AND save the planet? Graphic novelist Andrea Innocent brings this dream to life in her new exquisitely drawn book Lamington Left Behind.

This story is anything but boring. Set in a strange Australian future where robots rule, our main character Lamington wanders the wilderness after her town floods and she is left behind in the chaos. Little does she know a ragtag group of animals have also been hiding, waiting for someone special to come along… Shocked to discover she can understand every word they say, our brave nature crusader is tasked with a perilous journey to recover a library of seeds that will decide fate of the forest and the inhabitants that call it home.

Filled with great plot twists, talking mushrooms and some weird feral kids, this graphic novel is perfect for fans of Ember and The Island of Lost Creatures and the Lightfall series.
