Sisters
by Raina Telgemeier
Graphic novel. Middle grade. Sisters.
Story: Raina and her family are taking a toad trip from California to Colorado and back for a family reunion.
Language: The book flips back and forth from present to past, reflecting on childhood incidents that led to the family relationships of the present. These are done on a yellow background versus the traditional white. While no chapters, there are separations using full page illustrations as dividers.
Characters: Raina, the author and illusteatir, is the main character and we read the book from her point of view. Her little sister is Amara and her younger brother is Will. Her mom drives the car and its her side of the family they are visiting. Her dad is coming by plane, so we see him less in the present and more in the past featurettes.
I read Smile a few months ago and loved it and enjoyed this too. I wouldn't call this a sequel so much as a companion novel. I really enjoy the art style and stories and look forward to reading more.
