Staff Picks: Compass South By Hope Larson & Rebecca Mock

Compass South is a whirlwind graphic novel following the adventures of self-proclaimed orphans Alex and Cleo. The scrappy yet charming twins hatch a plot to impersonate the lost heirs to the Kimball company fortune and rob Mr. Kimball for all he’s worth. Unfortunately, the plot is almost immediately spoiled when the two run into another set of red-headed twins with the same idea! It’s a race across early middle-America with pirates, spies, sand traps and more. Who will reach Mr. Kimball first and con their way into a life of luxury? Guess you’ll just have to read it and find out!
