Cutie’s Big Adventures: Cutie Meets Mr. Lizard by Felicia Di John is a wonderful story.
Cutie is a sweet, curious and adventurous dog who lives in a house in the desert. Her mom Ava Rose is six years old and loves Cutie very much. She would like to play with her all day, but she must go to school. Cutie is never happy when her mom leaves her for school because that means she will be home all alone. So today, Cutie decides to go outdoors by herself to play. She explores the desert around her, makes a new friend, and finds that some animals eat strange things. She is having so much fun that she almost forgets to get back home before her mom arrives.

 I read this book to my 1st, 3rd, and 5th grade students. They loved the book and begged for more stories of Cutie. The story was captivating and the pictures appeared to jump off the page.

2021's Dune, the movie, ended with Paul Atreides and his mother Jessica falling in with a group of the desert-dwelling Fremen, which included a fight-to-the-death where Paul had to prove his worth to that group.

That forms an early part of this graphic novel, up to about - roughly- the half way mark.

As I said before when I read and reviewed book 1 Frank Herbert's DUNE: The Graphic Novel, Book 1, my only exposure to the Dune tale beforehand was that 2021 film (although I knew the broad strokes: desert planet, Spice, giant Sandworms), so I do feel it will be interesting to see, when part 2 of the movie series comes out, just how close it sticks to this graphic novel. Especially as, apparently (and as the foreword says), the authors and illustrators of this have tried to stick as close as possible to Frank Herbert 's original text as possible ...

Superb Enticing
Jacqueline Carey gives us an exceptional series and is a gifted author . When one reads the Kushiels series the descriptive writing has you feeling like you are there with the characters. You see the green mountainsides and feel the dry desert heat. This is an enjoyable historical fiction book with a lot of sexuality: about a different culture. The series of books has depth and character development with a wonderful historical fiction background.

Very slow to get going (1 more)
Just bland and rather boring considering the concept
Misses the target
Another one to miss on Netflix. The premise sounds a bit like a red neck Hard Target film out in the desert. It was so slow getting to the main action of the film. Even when the hunt does get going it's not tense or interesting. Watch Hard Target again or even @The Tournament (2009)
