Call Number: J MAL AND CHAD
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be small enough to swim in your kitchen sink or travel back to the time of dinosaurs? Child genius, Malcolm and his talking doggie side-kick, Chad take readers on a fun and action packed ride! To deal with the monotony of his everyday life, doing chores, sitting through class, and admiring his classmate Megan from afar, Malcolm uses his staggering intellect to create anything he can imagine. He invents a rocket ship, jet pack, time machine, and a shrink ray while concealing his genius and creations from everyone around him. His latest homework assignment to write about what he wants to be when he grows up prompts him to use his secret inventions to explore his options while taking Chad along for the ride.
Fans of Calvin and Hobbes will be drawn to this loveable duo and will enjoy following the hi-jinx and misadventures they get themselves into! This graphic novel is full of non-stop adventure and dynamic black and white illustrations that capture the emotion, action, and humor of each scene. The dialogue is funny and quick and the chapters, broken down into smaller manageable parts will keep readers engaged and wanting more!
