6/22/2023 0 Comments Graphic novel sunny side up![]() Much like living with an addict, there is no true resolution to Sunny Side Up, but in the end, Jenny and Matt Holm make us understand that things do get better. I’m not sure what the sequel, Swing it, Sunny, is about (I’m reading and reviewing it tomorrow), but if it varies in theme, between the Holm and Telgemeier books, parents, teachers, and family members have a nice little collection of per-teen themed gifts for the little ones in their lives. ![]() And here is where Sunny Side Up is different from Smile or Sisters: this book has the same feel but helps kids understand that they might not be the only ones dealing with addiction in their families. ![]() Sunny Side Up, brought to us by the fantastic brother/sister team of Jenny and Matt Holm, is about a young girl that is trying to find her place in the world, dealing with a family brought to turmoil by an addict of an older brother. This is good news for fans of Raina that are looking to branch out and find new books to read…kind of like discovering a new band that sounds a lot like your favorite. Same audience, same simple but effective artwork, and it discusses familial issues. ![]() Sunny Side Up is in the same ballpark as Raina Telgemeier’s books. ![]() Scholastic Week continues with Sunny Side Up! Please keep up with all of my old Graphic Novel Reviews here as I quest for 365 in 365 days! ![]()
