Tuesday Book Review: “Cassi and the House of Memories”
(“fresh up”/photo by Rawley, use with permission only, please)
Graphic novels are still on the radar and going strong, and that is a great thing. The art and stories and pretty cool, and they’re engaging. The series can grab big money as collector items, too. “Cassi and the House of Memories,” from artist/writer Dean Stuart, is a deep, thoughtful book about Cassi and her relationship with her Grandpa Charlie, who is struggling with his memory. Hard topic, great handling of it. I appreciate this book, which is Stuart’s debut graphic novel. (Viking/Penguin Random House, 2025, ages 8 and up, $14.99.)
