📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Kevin Panetta
Ari does not want to be a baker like
his parents. He wants to move to the city and be a musician. Despite this, the
summer after senior year finds him working in his family’s bakery. In order to
make his leaving easier for his parents, Ari decides to help hire a new worker
who can take over his tasks when he leaves. Enter Hector, new in town, and a
talented baker himself. As Hector and Ari spend time in the kitchen together,
the pair get to know each other and something may be blooming as they grow
closer.
With simple but beautiful
illustrations this is a sweet graphic novel. Ari and Hector’s relationship is
an adorable one that takes place slowly over the course of the summer. Although
a little slow-paced, especially in the beginning, this book is definitely worth
a read.
