The Guardians continue their search for the Yearling. Following the map, they soon realize that they must continue their journey underwater. Fortunately, Gale has the power to put them in an air bubble, which comes in handy when they meet The Sharrior! 

Guardians of Horsa is a cute graphic novel series targeted at young readers. I like that the illustrations and text size are similar to other graphic novels, but the adventure and readability are just right for a lower elementary reader. AJ was really excited about the story and was hopeful that I already had book #3.
