Description

When fourteen-year-old Selina Kyle, aka the future Catwoman, becomes homeless, she must confront questions of who she is and who she will become.She rejects human cruelty, but sometimes it seems as though brute force is the only way to "win." And if Selina is to survive on the streets, she must be tough. Can she find her humanity and reconcile toughness with her desire for community ... and love? From Lauren Myracle, the New York Times best-selling author of books like ttfn and ttyl, comes a new graphic novel that tells the story of a teenage Catwoman, as she struggles to find her own identity while living on the streets of Gotham.

Critic Reviews

“Praise for Lauren Myracle "The contemporary voice is casual, funny, and well, nice." -- Booklist "This unique coming-of-age story belongs in all middle grade collections." -- School Library Journal "Heart! Humor! Sisterhood! Magic! Myracle's new book has it all." --Sarah Mlynowski, New York Times best-selling author of the Whatever After series and co-author of Upside Down Magic "Light, quick reading with an authentic perspective." -- Kirkus "Myracle infuses enchantment into a heartwarming and well-written tale of sisters navigating a world without their mother." -- Publishers Weekly”

"Isaac Goodhart's lush, evocative black and blue illustrations pair perfectly with Lauren Myracle's dark reimagining of Catwoman's origin story.… Sophisticated teen readers will appreciate this tragic, heartbreaking tale of one lonely, determined teenaged girl's journey to becoming a badass anti-hero." —Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Nightingale

“A high-octane, emotionally-charged reimagining that is definitely the cat's meow.” —Kirkus Reviews

“With a smart heroine, plenty of action sequences, and a suspenseful plot, Under the Moon delivers the old-fashioned pleasures of comics in a package designed for today’s readers.” —ICv2

“This look at Catwoman’s backstory is dense with plot, emotion, and action. A sensitive origin story of a beloved antihero.” —School Library Journal

"Myracle delivers a Catwoman origin story update that captures the inner challenges of adolescence and trauma. Goodhart’s art depicts action scenes and traditionally normalized bodies in shades of blue and black that remind readers that regardless of time of day, Catgirl is a creature of the night." —Publishers Weekly

“Regardless of if you’re a Catwoman fan, you’re going to love it.” —Forever Young Adult
