Wind. Earth. Fire. Air. Only the Avatar was the master of all four elements. Only he save the world from the ruthless Fire Nation. But when the world needed him most, he disappeared. Until now... On the South Pole, a lone Water Tribe village struggles to survive. Young Waterbender Katara and her warrior brother Sokka rescue a mysterious boy named Aang, who is an Airbender--a race of people no one has seen in a century. Soon, everyone discovers that Aang is the long lost Avatar. Now it's up to Katara and Sokka to make sure Aang faces his destiny...to save the world!Nickelodeon's epic fantasy, packed with martial arts maneuvers, is now a thrilling new Cine-Manga adventure!
This certainly seems like it is going to address some real issues for the newly "peaceful" world. I just really really really REALLY wish Aang and Katara would stop calling each other "Sweetie."
I also read volumes 4-6 but can't find the listing for those. These are great graphic novels/manga/books for the whole family! My 11 yr old introduced us to the Avatar cartoon and everyone from the 3 yr old to the 39 yr old, loves them. The books are just as good. Good story line, good action, good drawing/animation, nice blend of Asian culture/martial arts w/ fantasy genre but PG enough for the toddler to watch. The main characters are young teenagers and they go from side-splittingly funny to heartbreaking and everything in between. When you realize that your heart is breaking b/c the main character's flying bison (yes, I said flying bison!) has gotten lost and mistreated, you know you've got some amazing story tellers!
