This is a funny and creative graphic novel for younger kids. Sticky Burr is a burr who gets made fun of by the other burrs because he likes to play the banjo and do art. But when the burr village is attacked by wild dogs, it's Sticky Burr who saves the day with his creativity.

This really isn't going to do much for folks older than say, fifth grade, but the artwork is really cute and the story is fun. Definitely recommended for children's library collections.
