📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Jarret Krosoczka
Author
and illustrator Jarret Krosoczka (Lunch
Lady series) shares the story of his unconventional childhood in graphic
novel format. Krosoczka was raised by a single mother until her heroin
addiction caused his grandparents to take him in. Despite his mother coming and
going from his life, not knowing who his father was, and his strict grandparents
who were well past their child-rearing days, Krosoczka was still supported by
an extended family and friends.
Krosoczka’s
story is an intriguing one filled with wonderful illustrations. This story is
raw and portrays some material that readers may be sensitive to. Readers don’t
need to be familiar with his fictional work to appreciate his memoir.
