Cute from start to the cliffhanger end.
From the art to the script, this adventure graphic novel leaves you following this quest wanting just to stay a bit longer in the easiness and adorableness that is and follows Timo the Adventurer!

I loved this charming and delightful graphic novel. It reminded me of the adventure books that I used to read - ‘The Goonies’, in particular. The artist, Yohan Sacrés’ illustrations were very strong and the use of colour was most appealing. I may well buy this great storybook, written by Jonathan Garnier, for my friend’s young son.
Thank you to NetGalley and Europe Comics for the complimentary ARC. This is my honest and totally voluntary opinion.

I sadly didn't get a chance to finish Timo the Adventurer but the bit I did read was whimsically wonderful!
All book-lovers dream of pursing adventures of their own and young Timo bravely takes that leap and finds himself venturing into a new world which before he'd only ever read about. But will Timo fulfill his wish and become a true hero worth reading about? There's only one way to find out...

I haven't read a graphic novel in a long time, but the artwork in this middle-grade graphic novel is so adorable. 💛 I loved the fact that Timo was a bookworm who told stories to every other kid in the village. I also enjoyed that Timo, after reading every single book in the village, decided to live is own adventures, even after realizing that he isn't very heroic.
The journal he writes with illustrations and facts about his adventures is a highlight. He draws and names every single creature he meets along his way - his thoughts on Broof are so funny .
All in all, I just couldn't stop reading this. And, the CHIFFHANGER?! I need part two, like, NOW!
