Cat's cradle: The Golden Twine Jo Rioux.
"Suri loves monsters -- studying their lore, telling stories about them (for a fee), and -- she hopes -- one day taming them. Unfortunately, no one takes an orphan street urchin who travels with a merchant camp very seriously. But Suri's self-confidence, cleverness, and ambition serve her well when a mysterious new wagon joins her camp -- holding something very big, very loud, and very monstrous." -- Back cover of Volume 1.

Jo Rioux (illustrator of M. T. Anderson's highly acclaimed The Daughters of Ys) makes her debut as a writer-illustrator in this fantasy-adventure graphic novel trilogy!
Suri loves monstersâstudying their lore, telling stories about them (for a fee), andâshe hopesâone day taming them. Unfortunately, no one takes an orphan street-urchin who travels with a merchant camp very seriously. But Suriâs self-confidence, cleverness, and ambition serve her well when a mysterious new wagon joins her campâholding something very big, very loud, and very monstrous.
And thatâs before Suri runs afoul of a treacherous family with its own beastly secretâand a prince hunting the greatest monster of all.
