A found family on the run

Six children with unusual abilities grow up hidden in a government facility known as the Playroom, where safety depends on staying out of sight. When a security breach drives them into the wider world, their search for a place to call home becomes entwined with a threat from the Collector, a mysterious figure whose powers put the group at risk. The graphic-novel format brings together fantasy, a band of young outsiders, and questions of belonging and trust. Its central tension rests on whether these children can rely on one another while confronting a danger connected to their forced escape.

  • Middle-grade readers interested in fantasy graphic novels and young characters with unusual abilities.

Book overview

Six kids search for a new place to call home in this middle grade graphic novel debut by comic creators Cait May and Trevor Bream, for fans of Marvel's Runaways and The Witch Boy by Molly Knox Ostertag. Another Kind is not your average monster story.

Tucked away in a government facility nicknamed the Playroom, six not-quite-human kids learn to control their strange and unpredictable abilities. Life is good--or safe, at least--hidden from the prying eyes of a judgmental world.

That is, until a security breach forces them out of their home and into the path of the Collector, a mysterious being with leech-like powers.

Can the group band together to thwart the Collector's devious plan, or will they wind up the newest addition to his collection?
