This warm, candid friendship story isn’t shy about the message it’s trying to send—that periods need not be a dirty secret. Pair it with nonfiction memoir companions by Shannon Hale and Raina Telgemeier.
Fans of Shannon Hale’s Real Friends or Amy Ignatow’s “The Popularity Papers” seeking another tale about the highs and lows of friendship will take comfort in seeing earnest Nat come into her own.
With this reassuring graphic novel, Tatulli offers a lifeline to middle schoolers dealing with the trials and tribulations of friendships. His lessons—a newcomer doesn’t always spell disaster for a friendship, and it’s OK to branch out and make new friends—will resonate strongly with middle grade readers.
This book would be a great summer reading prize for fans of the series; however, given the interactive elements, purchase for circulating collection is not recommended.
Every exceptional aspect of Bardugo’s novel—especially her ethnically, emotionally, and experientially inclusive cast—shines here. Simonson and Seaton present many models of female strength for reluctant readers, comic geeks, and Wonder Woman fans.
