Navigating the journey of life after high school is a titanic challenge for most teens. And for Ramsey Beyer, the transition from her small town high school in Paw Paw, Michigan, to freshman year of college at a bustling art school in Baltimore, Maryland, wasn’t entirely smooth sailing. In her hybrid graphic novel/memoir, Little Fish: A Memoir from A Different Kind of Year (Zest Books, dist. by Houghton Harcourt, $15.99 hardcover; 9781936976188), Ramsey shares her observations about growing up, making decisions, and adjusting to college life through an engaging combination of lists, comics-style artwork, collages, and journal entries. Like most college freshmen, Ramsey experiences an entire range of emotions, from being painfully homesick to gleefully independent—and everything in between. Even though she's a "little fish" in a big pond, at college she feels “Limitless … like I’m challenging everything I thought I knew.” As a down-to-earth, well-adjusted young adult who sees college as an opportunity for self-growth, Ramsey is a refreshing character for readers to meet—from her struggles to form new friendships while staying afloat in her demanding academic program to her uncertainty about dating and her future career.
