This One Summer (Paperback)

Every summer, Rose goes with her mom and dad to a lake house in Awago Beach. It's their getaway, their refuge. Rosie's friend Windy is always there, too, like the little sister she never had. But this summer is different. Rose's mom and dad won't stop fighting, and when Rose and Windy seek a distraction from the drama, they find themselves with a whole new set of problems. One of the local teens - just a couple of years older than Rose and Windy - is caught up in something bad... Something life threatening.

It's a summer of secrets, and sorrow, and growing up, and it's a good thing Rose and Windy have each other.

"This One Summer" is a tremendously exciting new teen graphic novel from two creators with true literary clout. Cousins Mariko and Jillian Tamaki, the team behind "Skim," have collaborated on this gorgeous, heartbreaking, and ultimately hopeful story about a girl on the cusp of childhood - a story of renewal and revelation.

Review This Product

A vital coming-of-age graphic novel

Tue, 26 Jul 2022 | Review by: Reinhard V.

This One Summer is a poignant coming-of-age graphic novel that beautifully captures how childhood innocence has to face the realities of maturity at some point. But it also reminds us how important the people we face the end of childhood with are. A beautiful book from start to finish.
