I'd give this book a solid 4.5/5 stars! Even though it's a children's graphic memoir, the storytelling is beautiful and heartbreaking all at once. I wish that there weren't so many people who are in the situation that the author himself described in his memoir, yet at the same time, I am grateful for him voicing his experience. I don't think I'll read the book again because of how heavy it was, but I am glad that I picked it up.
