Reviews

Library Media Connection

“Each title puts the reader in charge of the characters’ fates, for better or worse. In addition to the adventurous nature of these books, an element of also humor exists, as the main characters continually try to outwit others. The bright, cartoonish illustrations add to the fast-pace and readers could reread each story many times with different endings…. The interactivity of this series would make it a fun addition to a library’s graphic novel section.” —Library Media Connection

School Library Journal

“There’s no shortage of excitement in these Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style graphic novels…. For beefing up reluctant-reader offerings, these books are worth a look.” —School Library Journal

Booklist

“In these interactive stories, young readers can choose certain actions for Coyote that will lead to different outcomes—some good, some bad, all fun.” —Booklist

Publishers Weekly

“The story immersion, great art, and blend of prose and comics will attract even reluctant readers to lose themselves in a book.” —Publishers Weekly

Kirkus Reviews

“These 64 pages give readers an entertaining and even well-rounded look at Coyote’s personality: the trickster, fool and occasional wise man of tradition…. So what if the tone isn’t completely authentic—who doesn’t like to see a coyote fall off a cliff?” —Kirkus Reviews
