Booklist - 03/15/2023 Meesh is a demon who fancies herself a fairy princess and would rather tend to flowers than attend fire-breathing and acid-puking classes at demon school. After a scuffle with some other kids at school, she discovers that her community's lava is poisoned and everyone is turning to stone. She decides to go to Plumeria, where the fairies live, to get help, and a mishap leaves her and the fairy princess stranded and out of reach. The demons and fairies have a long antagonistic history that puts this new alliance to the test, but once Meesh and new friend Nouna see the big picture, they realize everyone wins when they put their differences aside. This comic is beautifully illustrated with simple, cartoon drawings and pastel palettes, and it's as much about accepting other folks who are different as it is about loving and accepting oneself with all of one's strengths and weaknesses. The story has something for everyone: fairy princesses, unicorns, demons, werewolves, and high adventure with a cast of brave kids. - Copyright 2023 Booklist.
