By (author) Reul, Sarah Lynne; Illustrated by Reul, Sarah Lynne
Description:

The Fix-Its: Power Up with Power Drill is the latest offering from I Can Read Comics, an early reader line that familiarizes children with the world of graphic novel storytelling and encourages visual literacy in emerging readers. In the second installment of Sarah Lynn Reul’s STEM-focused series, all the tools in the toolbox are excited when a new member arrives—Power Drill!

When the toolbox gets its first power tool, a drill eager to get to work, everybody else kicks back and relaxes—until Power Drill’s battery runs out! Can the rest of the tools help their new friend recharge?

The Fix-Its: Power Up with Power Drill is a Level Three I Can Read Comic, geared for kids who are comfortable with comics and can read on their own but still need a little help.

Review quote:
“[Reul] gives readers an up-close look at various woodworking tools, reminds them that rest and recharging are essential, and demonstrates the importance of respect and cooperation. The crisp panels and gently animated look of the workbench denizens add to the welcoming feel. Hooray for teamwork, hard work, and friendship!” — Kirkus Reviews “Reule’s open panels, appealing artwork, and restrained vocabulary make this STEM-themed comic very approachable, and the SEL angle of the story—exploring themes of burnout, asking for help, and showing gratitude in a mindful way—will be useful to elementary-schoolers.” — Booklist
