Atomic Lucas - by Pirate Sourcil (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

When Lucas uses the magical, wish-granting Gloom Stone on his 13th birthday, he thinks he's hit the jackpot. Wishes? Granted. Problems? Solved. Life? Perfect. Except... maybe not.

Between a climate-crusader best friend, a stuffed animal who won't zip it, a never-ending wish list spiraling wildly out of control, and a time-traveling great-great-great-great-grandfather with a third for revenge, Lucas learns that getting everything you want isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Magic, mayhem, and a whole lot of missteps collide in this hilarious and heartfelt graphic novel about growing up, messing up, and figuring it out, one wish at a time.

Atomic Lucas features:

• An epic, full-color comic adventure
• The writer of Diary of an 8-Bit Warrior Graphic Novel
• Dyslexia-friendly font and fast-paced, episodic chapters
• Big themes of growing up and managing emotions, wrapped in comedy
• A perfect read for fans of Hilo, Dog Man, and Amulet
