The Weirn Books, Vol. 1: Be Wary of the Silent Woods and newly released The Weirn Books, Vol. 2: The Ghost and the Stolen Dragon (JY, an imprint of Yen Press | October 15, 2024 | Ages 8-12). In the Night Realm, shifters, vampires, weirns (a particular kind of witch), and other night things passing for human may prowl the streets, but school is still in session—and you still have to do your homework!
In The Weirn Books, Vol. 1: Be Wary of the Silent Woods, Ailis and Na’ya are pretty average students, but when a shadow starts looming and a classmate gets all weird, they’re the first to notice. It gets personal, though, when Na’ya’s little brother D’esh disappears. To get him back, she has no choice but to confront the secrets of the forbidden mansion in the Silent Woods!
Just in time for Halloween, The Weirn Books, Vol. 2: The Ghost and the Stolen Dragon takes readers back to Chmakova’s supernatural world full of magic, adventure, and… dragons! After her terrible adventures in the Silent Woods, Na’ya’s world seems to have returned to normal… that is, except for the nightmares that keep haunting her. What she needs is the power to protect everyone, and she has the perfect solution—she’ll turn into a dragon, once and for all! With help from Ailis and Jasper, everything seems to be going according to plan. But what’s that dark shadow slithering around the spell-casting range?
School Library Journal hailed The Weirn Books, Vol. 1: Be Wary of the Silent Woods as a “sweet, not-too-scary coming-of-age story that feels like a young read-alike to Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” while Publishers Weekly praised Chmakova’s signature art style: “Classic manga visuals enrich Chmakova’s charming, full-color art: sweeping magic amid serene concentration, shadows accentuating fear-inspiring retorts from authority figures, and facial contortions add humor to life-and-death stakes… Chmakova smartly keeps the focus on family, friendship, and the relatable struggles of fitting in.”
❖
Chmakova is considered one of the most iconic creators in the middle grade graphic novel space, making a name for herself with acclaimed and award-winning works like Dramacon, Nightschool, Berrybrook Middle School, the manga adaptation of James Patterson’s Witch & Wizard, and the webcomic Chasing Rainbows. Her most recent graphic novel, Enemies (released Sept 2022), was a top seller in the category.
❖

The kit includes enough bottles and ingredients for 20 glow-in-the-dark potions, and the included Spell Book features instructions for making 7 potions with kids encouraged to create their own with the remaining ingredients!
