Long Distance by Whitney Gardner
4.0
This was an unexpectedly and delightfully weird middle grade graphic novel.
Vega's parents make her leave her one and only friend in Portland to move to Seattle, and then immediately ship her off to summer camp to make new friends. Strange and mysterious things keep happening at camp, so Vega and a few of her fellow campers investigate. This is a cute story about friendship and how it's ok to have more than one friend -- but with a strange twist.
This will be appealing to fans of Kristin Gudsnuk (Making Friends), Shannon Hale (Real Friends), Svetlana Chmakova (Awkward), and (of course) Raina Telgemeier,
Highly recommended for grades 3+.
