Sisters by Raina Telgemeier - - ESSENTIAL

Telgemeier, Raina Sisters 197 pgs. Scholastic, 2014. $8.99.  Language: G; Violence: G; Mature Content: G.  

Being stuck for a week in a van with your little sister is just no fun.

14-year-old Raina is on a road trip with her mother, sister and little brother to a family reunion in Colorado.  She really doesn’t get along with Amara (age 9) and the two are pretty miserable for the whole trip.  

Based on Telgemeier’s experiences, this graphic novel takes the reader along for the ride, as well as gives you the back stories behind room sharing, pets, and family drama.  Another hit from the author of Smile and Drama.
