It touched my crabby old heart and left me feeling bright and happy. It took no time at all to read and the story was well worth it. THIS WAS THE CUTEST THING I HAVE EVER READ!


Thank you to DC Entertainment for an ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review. This would be the perfect novel to read aloud to a younger child-they'd love the pictures, and wouldn't get bored by too much text! The art was adorable and easy to grasp at a glance, and the story moved along at a fast pace. I found Diana: Princess of the Amazons to be a refreshing and cute middle grade graphic novel. Mona animates to life! All of the sudden, Diana has a friend for all of her adventures.īut, as Diana soon learns, having a friend is harder than it looks. So, upon hearing the origin story from her mother that Diana was formed from clay and a wish, Diana decides to make her own clay "friend." She molds her friend together and wishes for "Mona" to be a real girl. Life isn't exciting when you're the only kid in the world and all of the grown-ups are too busy to play. In exile, Diana would age like a normal person.This cute, middle grade graphic novel focused on Wonder Woman was full of heart.ĭiana is the only child in a community of Amazon warrior women, and she's not exactly having the best time. The people of Themyscira lived forever while on the island, though could be killed in battle or in an accident.

Only one of the Amazons, the stablewoman Alethea, did not give her the attention Diana demanded of them all. The only child born on the island, Diana grew spoiled by all the Amazons, becoming a vain and self-centered girl, always provoking the other women with her pranks. The music reached the ears of the Gods of Olympus, who then wept with emotion and their silver and gold tears falling on the sand of the island gave life to Diana as well as her divine powers. Hippolyta sang while giving her forms, and the Amazons of the island joined her in the song. Princess Diana was born from the sands shaped by her mother Queen Hippolyta on a beach in Themyscira.
