REVIEW

Prepare for triple the excitement as The World of Butterfingers serves up not one, but three thrilling stories that'll keep you hooked from start to finish, where imagination meets education in the most delightful way. This comic book adaptation of Khyrunnisa A.'s novels is like a rollercoaster ride through a crazy mashup of worlds - a Mysteriopolis where curious minds and detective instincts take center stage, a full-circle trip of problem-resolving stetson hat, and school life where a late super marathon runner strengthens the bond between Princi and Butterfingers AKA Amar Kishen. It's like having your cake with a side of mind-boggling trivia and hilarious encounters.

Khyrunnisa A. seamlessly infuses everyday knowledge into extraordinary story arcs. She's like a sneaky genius, dropping fact bombs about insurance, smuggling, butterfly migration, marathon origins, and more all while keeping the adventure fun and addictive. It's like finding hidden gems in a treasure hunt. Who knew learning could be this cool?

And let's not forget Abhijeet Kini's stellar illustrations! He's a maestro at giving characters life and expressions. You can practically feel the disappointment, sadness, annoyance, and happiness oozing off the characters' faces. And when it comes to depicting the clumsy butterfingers crashing and falling, he nails it. You can almost hear the thuds and see the chaotic hilarity unfold before your eyes.

Happy Reading!
