New Releases by Jon Klassen

A full-color graphic anthology of short stories by some of the hottest creators in the field, FLIGHT, Volume Four is the newest addition to a great success story in graphic novel publishing. Since 2004, when the first Volume of Flight burst on the scene, the publication of subsequent volumes has become a highly anticipated annual event. Artists are constantly contacting Kibuishi (the editor of the Flight volumes and himself a contributor), asking to be included in the next volume of Flight. So it''s no wonder Flight has ascended so rapidly in the graphic novel universe, becoming a fan favorite and developing a rabid following. Each contributor''s story in the anthology represents a labor of love, and that fact shines through in the overall quality of the series. “With truly stellar art from masters of the field, this fantasy anthology is a must for comics connoisseurs and a delight to readers who like pretty stories.” Publishers Weekly on Flight, Volume Three (Starred Review.)

De angustia por su pequeño hermano recién nacido, quien lucha día a día por sobrevivir; de inquietud por sus padres, titubeantes y devastados ante la perspectiva de un futuro terrible; de insomnio ante la ominosa presencia de un avispero en el tejado de su casa. Así que, cuando la reina de las avispas anida en sus sueños, ofreciéndole allí sanación para su pequeño hermano, Steve mira en el suceso la solución a todos sus males. Lo único que tiene que hacer es aceptar, decir "sí". Pero en esa palabra se esconde gran poder y peligro. Y una vez que se pronuncia, ¿será posible dar marcha atrás? For some kids, summer is but a sunny time filled with fun. For Steve, it is a season full of worry. He worries about his baby brother and his daily fight to survive, about his parents who are trying their best to cope, and he even worries about the wasp''s nest looming ominously from the roof of his house. So when a mysterious wasp queen invades his dreams, offering to "fix" the baby, Steve thinks his prayers have been answered. All he has to do is say "Yes." But "yes" is a powerful word. It is also a dangerous one. And once it is uttered, can it be taken back?

"When wasps come to Steve in a dream offering to fix his sick baby brother, he thinks all he has to do is say yes. But yes may not mean what Steve thinks it means"--
