I'm a decade late to the party but this was such a great graphic novel. Both in terms of the 1st generation experience and how parables were interwoven. The artwork was punchy and fun. My kids go to a public school with a special Chinese emphasis (they take Chinese once a week and there's a special Chinese classroom). I wouldn't be surprised if the upper grades read this GN. Still a little too complex for my guys, but they would love the story of the Monkey King!
