monj 's review for:
Lumberjanes, Vol. 4: Out of Time
by Grace Ellis, ND Stevenson, Shannon Watters
I continue to be so incredibly excited about this series and wish I had had access to this kind of content growing up. I was especially excited to get some more background on the mysterious Rosie and learn more about the purpose of the Lumberjanes. But the real draw continues to be how amazing the girls and Jen are in every panel. Jen's mix of fierceness, exasperation, and the desire to protect her girls was highlighted in this book, to my delight - her driving = how I feel driving. I'm so glad that she is starting to demand answers and start embracing all the things that go along with being a Lumberjane.
But the most significant part for me was the conversation between Barney and Jo about being trans and being where you feel comfortable and what it means to be a Lumberjane. It is seriously great to see diversity in race, gender, and sexuality presented in such a positive way to kids in a manner that they can connect to. This series makes me wish I could afford to buy sets of it and mail it to everyone I know with kids or who enjoys graphic novels.
