Description
From comics legend Lewis Trondheim comes a quirky and hilarious graphic novel full of magic and mayhem!
There's something strange about the new kid in class. Maybe it's because he's from a faraway country where they practice different customs. Or maybe it's because his skin is green, he carries a club, and his favorite pastime is slaying elves.

Critical Reviews
A Junior Library Guild selection
"French comics master Trondheim's use of old gag-strip, punchline-per-page rhythms keeps things well paced." --Booklist "A sweet and sour look at friendship and fantasy fun, suitable for middle grade collections." --School Library Journal "Odd yet charming; young fantasy fans with a taste for the absurd will find plenty to enjoy." --Kirkus
