Whistle: A New Gotham City Hero by E. Lockhart
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
WHISTLE by E. Lockhart is an interesting graphic novel that follows the journey of Willow Zimmerman, a 16-year-old girl who is struggling to make ends meet while taking care of her mother, who has been diagnosed with cancer. Willow's life changes drastically when she reconnects with her estranged "uncle" Edward, who provides her with the means to afford medical treatment for her mother. However, as she becomes more involved in Edward's illegal activities, Willow's relationships with those she cares about are strained. The story takes a supernatural turn when Willow and a Great Dane named Lebowitz, gain powers after a violent encounter with Killer Croc. The newfound abilities give Willow the chance to make a difference in her community, but she must decide whether to stay loyal to Edward or stand up against his corrupt actions.
This graphic novel will appeal to a young audience. It was great to see some of the Gotham City Villains make cameo appearances throughout the novel. The artwork by Manuel Preitano is great and captures the essence of the story. Overall, it was a good story that covers themes such as family, activism, and corruption.
