So, when I visit the grands I take an assortment of gifts that I dole out randomly from my “magic suitcase.” On my most recent trip I bought the six book collection of volumes 10-15 of the Demon Slayer Manga series for a 10-year-old boy who had already read books 1-9. I had already given him volumes 10-13 but hadn’t seen him reading them so on the final night of my stay I handed him volumes 14-15 and asked if he was waiting until he had all the books before beginning to read.

Needless to say, he gives this series a very enthusiastic five stars! I’ll add that the books are well made with quality materials, vibrant colors, and wonderful illustrations.
