Sincerely, Harriet by Sarah Winifred Searle
3.0

TBH I wasn’t feeling reading today. We all have those days, but after some disappointing news yesterday reading was the last thing I wanted to do today. However my goal of reading a book a day in the summer would not be ignored. Enter Sincerely, Harriet.
✏️
Harriet is bored and stuck at home in her apartment in Chicago, missing her friends at camp during the ‘90’s. Harriet also is dealing with multiple sclerosis She befriends the older landlady who tells Harriet what it was like for her son who had polio in the 1950s. She gets Harriet to write down her feelings. This helps her find an outlet for her loneliness & her active imagination.
✏️
This was a very quiet graphic novel and just what I needed today. Something a bit serious but not too sad. Learning about various chronic illnesses can put things into perspective and the artwork was very appropriate for MG audience.
