MOON PRINCE TP

This fantasy graphic novel, starring bi-racial orphans Max and Molly, is a rollicking adventure to the Moon with a powerful anti-racist message. Mistreated for being mixed-race and forced into hard labor at a workhouse in West Hoboken, New Jersey, young Max and Molly are ordinary orphans - or so they think. That is, until a wise old man hears their last name: M'Chawi. Rattled by this realization, he sends them off on a journey that will uncover the secret behind their mystic lineage and give them purpose and power far from home - on the Moon! There, they encounter the Moon's fantastic inhabitants: the Sky Pirates and their merciless Queen Melissa; the Groos, blue primates and genius mechanics - literal grease monkeys - and their robot protector, Moma Machina; and a kingdom of singing spiders giant enough to eat a man. Looks can be deceiving, and those who first appear frightening can turn out to be allies, and even friends. Take Prince Grakko, pampered heir-apparent to the Bat-People
