Storymaze 1: The Ultimate Wave

By Terry Denton

Book Overview

These sharp and hilarious science fiction stories with comic-style illustrations encourage reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike to read the pictures as part of an ongoing narrative to build visual literacy. Each high-energy tale follows the many surfing adventures of Nico, Claudia, and Mikey as they plunge into parallel worlds and weird places beyond the known universe. Part novel, part comic book, these tales twist when least expected and continually stretch a child's imagination and humor. Kids will also delight in a variety of verbal puns and jokes throughout the adventures.

Customer Reviews

The Storymaze Series Rocks!

Have to say that this series is wonderful for elementary school boys. My son is 10 years old and can't get enough of these books. Terry Denton's illustrations are very funny and interesting and these stories captivate boys with their humor. I highly recommend them and does my son :-) Also, the Andy Griffiths "Just..." book series that Terry Denton collaborates on is also a fabulous choice for boys to get them into reading.
