  • Excellent for late elementary and middle school

    Im reading these graphic novels with my 9yr old and really appreciate this author! . The protagonist in this book has normal struggles of middle school and puberty and I have so enjoyed the way the author depicts her navigating friends and so called friends. Reading along with my younger daughter has been so wonderful as we talk about Raina’s courage and sympathize with her fears and worries. If you are an open and accepting others’ differences and want to be be able to talk to your children about some of these differences I highly recommend these books. Even though I have talked about gay people and my daughter knows many gay people and couples, having a character come out in book helps open the door to more discussion and ideas of compassion, acceptance and love for ALL.
