"unforgettable . . . will shake middle grade readers to the
core"-School Library Journal, starred review "Beautifully
illustrated, relatable, and genuine." -Molly Brooks, creator of
Sanity & Tallulah "Everyone needs to buy this book now.
Seriously. Buy it, read it, share it."-Colleen Nelson, author and
teacher Honest and funny, this award-winning graphic novel from a
debut creator is a refreshingly real exploration of mental health,
cultural differences, and the trials of middle school. Livy is
already having trouble fitting in as the new girl at school-and
then there's Viola. Viola is Livy's anxiety brought to life, a
shadowy twin that only Livy can see or hear. Livy tries to push
back against Viola's relentless judgment, but nothing seems to work
until she strikes up new friendships at school. Livy hopes that
Viola's days are numbered. But when tensions arise both at home and
at school, Viola rears her head stronger than ever. Only when Livy
learns how to ask for help and face her anxiety does she finally
figure out living with Viola. Rosena Fung draws on her own early
experiences with anxiety and the pressures of growing up as the
child of Chinese immigrant parents to craft a charming, deeply
personal story that combines the poignancy of Raina Telgemeier's
Guts with the wacky humor of Lumberjanes. Exuberant, colorful art
brings Livy's rich imaginative world-filled with everything from
sentient dumplings to flying unicorns-to life on the page.
