Foes turned frenemies Cat Ninja and Master Hamster team up with their new friend Hoot on this action-packed poster and bookmark. Whether it’s books, e-books, or comic books, this trio has an important message: READ! Epic Originals’ Cat Ninja is a hilarious graphic novel series about a lovable family cat named Claude, with a heroic alter-ego—Cat Ninja. Volume 1 sees Claude trying to keep his secret identity under wraps while thwarting the evil plans of slimy thugs, rampaging robots, and a certain rodent nemesis who lives under the same roof!

This new poster, illustrated by Shannon Wright, features twins and best friends Maureen and Francine Carter from the graphic novel series Twins. Written by Coretta Scott King Honor author Varian Johnson, Twins follows the Carter sisters, who do everything together—at least until the start of sixth grade, when it seems like everything changes.
