Sylvie by Sylvie Kantorovitz
2.0
this is an autobiographical graphic novel about the author/illustrator’s life and on the road to adulthood.
there are different random stories from school to relationships to family - it seems like there are a lot of stories the author would like to share but just felt like it causes the narratives to be disjointed at some parts and the story was quite flat throughout the book.
this is targeted to children but im not too sure if they would enjoy this one a lot as its quite lengthy and the art might not appeal to some readers even though personally i find it cute!! it also covers huge themes like racism/religious discrimination which is good but i hope there was more elaboration in explaining clearly what is right/wrong. this is only sylvie’s first book and theres still a lot of potential though - will definitely keep a look out to her future works.
