An NPR Best Book of the Year.
K is a 10-12 year old boy living in an unknown European city in what appears to be the late 1800s. K Is in Trouble is a graphic novel that tells of his misadventures.
In a series of stories, K runs into trouble with a talking fish, he meets a talking insect, and finds an intelligent crow. But, his real difficulties are with adults who don't listen. The adults at school don't listen, the police don't listen, the mayor doesn't listen, and his parents especially don't listen.
I liked the art, but the stories were so-so. The last story is the best by far.
I rate this graphic novel 3 stars out of 5. Not bad, not great.
This book can be found on Amazon.com here: K Is in Trouble by Gark Klement.
More than 2100 reviews over the last 25 years.
