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 schoolāand then thereās Viola. Viola is Livyās anxiety brought to life, a shadowy twin that only Livy can see or hear. Livy tries to push back against Violaās relentless judgment, but nothing seems to work until she strikes up new friendships at school. Livy hopes that Violaās 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 Telgemeierās Guts with the wacky humor of Lumberjanes. Exuberant, colorful art brings Livyās rich imaginative worldāfilled with everything from sentient dumplings to flying unicornsāto life on the page.
