Heart of the City by Steenz for March 15, 2020

Who could possibly understand this???

Raina Telgemeier has reached a LOT of readers in my classroom :)

Well Mom will need to apply stimuli to the postier anatomy.

If my kids were Heart’s age, I’d look her up.

I’ll try to remember next Christmas when child services runs their book drive. My niece is definitely more of a gamer now and can’t offer book advice.

Whoever this poor little girl character is she looks like she’s having those dreaded monthly cramps in a couple of those images. Could this lay in Heart’s future as well????

To paraphrase MST3K, not everybody is going to get every reference. However, the ones who the joke is written for, will.

My generation encouraged our daughters to read Judy Bloom. I am guessing it is the same service Mark Tatulli is providing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raina_Telgemeier. Worthy reading for kids of all ages. 3 Eisner awards and others. She’s a great story teller and artist. She lives in SF and we saw her at the Cartoon Art Museum a few years ago when we were still living in the City.

I’m old and have no children….I had to look it up

My “child” is 36 so she was no help. Comments were, however.

Nice shout out. Nice boots, Heart.“That’s an excuse I haven’t heard before.”

That can happen to anyone when reading an awesome graphic novel.
