 when Stephen gets blasted into outer space. Julie's Grampa runs around a lot, shows his underpants to the world, and provides comic relief. Of course, Julie is smarter than the grownups, and she uses her knowledge of third-grade science to save the day when she opens a peanut butter jar by putting it under hot water and uses a potato to generate electricity.

Grampa & Julie: Shark Hunters is for younger teens (it could also go in the children's section); I wouldn't recommend it for readers past the sixth grade. This graphic novel contains lots of action and bad jokes, so readers won't be bored. Grampa and Julie's adventures are chronicled every month in Nickelodeon magazine, so this series will be known to some of your patrons. Recommended for collections that cater to younger YAs. George Galuschak, YA Libn., Montvale PL, Montvale, NJ

J--Recommended for junior high school students. The contents are of particular interest to young adolescents and their teachers.
