K-Gr 2— In this series installment, Viv and Sanjay travel inside a cheetah's body, like in the Fantastic Voyage or The Magic School Bus . The book is divided into short chapters complete with a table of contents and factual back matter. Almost all text is dialogue inside of word bubbles, and the artwork is colorful and angular. The plot is clear and the young Indian characters are resourceful and determined. The mix of fact and fantasy is fun, but their intersection is clumsy. To fix the cheetah's cramp, the adventurous pair drill into the muscle and use a tiny spray can and foam roller to fix it. Back matter includes facts about the muscular system, but doesn't mention how cramps occur or how to fix them. VERDICT While there is room for improvement, this book can serve as a fun introduction to comics with a few anatomy facts sprinkled in for good measure.
