Booklist - 07/01/2020 The new graphic novel imprint HarperAlley kicks off with this wacky adventure starring a young pea, a disguised queen bee, and a flightless blue jay. Pea wakes up with the sun, literally ready to roll—it’s a farm thing. But Pea has barely gotten going when he’s stopped by a heated argument between Strawberry and Cherry about who has rolled the farthest. Not to be outdone, Pea joins in, only to be issued a challenge: roll to the big red-leafed tree beyond the fence. Gulp! As Pea gets rolling, a storm moves in and blows him off course and directly into Bee, who also happens to be lost. The two pair up and, after a hilarious misunderstanding, are joined by Jay, who agrees to help them get home. Running gags, eye-rolling puns, and action sequences are accentuated by the colorful cartoon art, which makes impressive use of Pea’s large, expressive eyes, his best and only feature. Fans of the Bird & Squirrel books are a natural fit for this fun and funny new series. - Copyright 2020 Booklist.
