Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Brave Ninja
Mary Nhin · 2020
56/100
👎 Skip It
The B.R.A.V.E. method here is catchy and the little ninja is comedy, not combat, so it's an easy, low-stakes read for worried kids. It's clearly popular - 23 books deep into the series - but I couldn't turn up a single independent review to confirm the writing or illustration actually holds up beyond the marketing copy.
