This graphic novel is a tender memoir about family and a heart-wrenching depiction of the forced incarceration of Japanese Americans as seen through the eyes of a child. I think this title should be required reading in American high schools.

This book was the cooling balm I needed now that Veep is done and I'm struggling to ignore American politics. It's a sugary confection of a romance, and it offers the hope that our government will rise out of its current state. It has many of the romantic tropes readers love - enemies to lovers, royal affairs, secret relationships - and it's genuinely funny. It's set firmly in The Now, with references that will eventually date it (RuPaul’s Drag Race, Parks and Recreation, Kid Cudi, etc.), but I happily camped out in this La La Land where everything is a bit more fair than the real world. If you're a fan of female presidents, biracial families, queer princes and killer chemistry, you might enjoy it, too!This book was the cooling balm I needed now that Veep is done and I'm struggling to ignore American politics.

Set entirely in a pumpkin patch over the course of one day, this sweet romance is the perfect autumnal graphic novel. Rainbow Rowell's dialogue conveys an easy friendship, despite Deja and Josiah being "seasonal friends" at the patch, and Faith Erin Hicks' cute, colorful art is a perfect fit for the story. "Pumpkinheads" is brimming with charm, sugary confections, and all things autumn. Dejah and Josiah are older teens, being in a transitional period of their lives and heading off to college, but this book is appropriate for younger teens, too. It also boasts positive bisexual and body image representation!Set entirely in a pumpkin patch over the course of one day, this sweet romance is the perfect autumnal graphic novel.

Omat, an Inuit shaman born with the body of a woman but a hunter's spirit, journeys the icy lands of early North America (1000 A.D.) and encounters Viking invaders. It includes mystical elements of polytheistic religion, both Inuit and Norse, so it's technically historical fantasy. Brodsky's compelling story is based around one historical record of a meeting between the Inuit of the eastern Canadian Arctic and the Vikings. This is an outstanding novel from an author who really did her research. If you're into survival stories and the distant past, I think you will be gripped by Omat's journey.Omat, an Inuit shaman born with the body of a woman but a hunter's spirit, journeys the icy lands of early North America (1000 A.D.) and encounters Viking invaders.

This is a lovely, dreamy fantasy that really tugs at the heartstrings, especially if you have squishy feelings for grandparents. I usually whip through picture books but I lingered over this one simply because the Fan brothers' illustrations are so detailed and surreal.This is a lovely, dreamy fantasy that really tugs at the heartstrings, especially if you have squishy feelings for grandparents.

I enjoyed reading this picture book aloud with my three-year-old niece. While it is not a wordless picture book, the text is minimal, so she explained what was happening in the illustrations. We were both charmed by the giant turtle, and this is a small thing but I like that the size of the animals at the tea party seems to fluctuate. It adds to the surrealism. On that note, I'm still not quite sure if this book follows a dream or a surreal adventure, but maybe that's the point - it's open to interpretation! A perfect reading selection for bedtime.I enjoyed reading this picture book aloud with my three-year-old niece.

An unexpectedly cute love story. Nora is an average twenty-something just trying to get by, and her boyfriend, Bear is... a black bear. I know it sounds weird, but it works in the context of this slim graphic novel. Nora takes us through the ups and downs that come with dating a bear (e.g., he eats garbage when he thinks she isn't looking, but he's great at cuddling). Her best friends are torn (one thinks he's a riot while the other worries for her safety), her mom thinks it's a phase, and of course there's the issue of hibernation. How will they handle the seasonal separation? I didn't expect to find it so sweet, and I also didn't expect to find myself rooting for this couple! Cat Farris' illustrations are adorable. I would love to see more adult comics from her!An unexpectedly cute love story. Nora is an average twenty-something just trying to get by, and her boyfriend, Bear is... a black bear.

I adore Jenni Desmond's illustrations of bears. Their dot eyes are on point! Albert is a bear with a favorite napping branch, but one day he hears his tree crying. The reveal is expected for adults (a frightened owlet in a tree hollow is alarmed by the sight of Albert) but will delight young children. This would be a fun book to read aloud, especially if you show no shame and go all out with the young owl's cries.I adore Jenni Desmond's illustrations of bears. Their dot eyes are on point!

I feel like Jim Panzee quite often. I think many young children do. We could all use a friend like Norman in our lives. This book would be fun to read aloud. The illustrations are hilarious, and both pictures and text are highly expressive (as you can tell form the cover illustration). It would be a great picture book choice for a unit or storytime on feelings.I feel like Jim Panzee quite often. I think many young children do. We could all use a friend like Norman in our lives.
