There seems to be a disconnect with the age of kids who play with My Little Ponies and the age of the reader of My Little Pony; the reading age is higher. Also, this is volume 7 of 8 and I haven’t had the opportunity to read the previous installments, so judging solely on this volume, I think it’s a pretty dark story. Does My Little Pony really need to be in graphic novel form? Really? This is not something I would recommend school libraries spend their money on.
