Fly on the Wall by Remy Lai
3.0
It was interesting to read a middle-grade graphic novel hybrid starring a flawed antihero that I didn't particularly like. 12 year old Henry is tired of being perceived as a baby, but he definitely acts like one, including his decision to fly to Singapore to see his dad without telling anybody. (Don't worry, it's only a 5 hour flight).
The art was charming, the grandma who loves martial arts dramas was great, and I appreciated learning a little bit about Henry's family's culture. Kids who read, um, Mandarin? (I am too ignorant to know what language Granny is speaking...) will appreciate the included bilingual text.
