![]() ![]() I highly recommend this book to people of all ages. The illustrations in this graphic novel are beautiful and add depth to the story. There are some intense parts in the book, but the book kept my attention from beginning to end. Liz Prince tells her life story with a twist of humor. This is a perfect book for young adults who are dealing with fitting in the “in” crowd. The author tackles the subject of bullying, feeling no one understands you, and accepting & loving yourself. I have always danced to the beat of my own drum – so I embraced the term “Tomboy” because it meant I was unique. Maybe having an orange and black racing track, a green big wheel, and playing football with the boys wasn’t the “girly” thing to do, but it was fun to me. Now when I think about those days – I say to myself “Did my dad secretly wish for a boy child?” The word “Tomboy” rolled off the tongues of many of my friends when they referred to me. It always amazes me how a book can transport me to a time I thought was lost in the “Twilight Zone” section of my brain. ![]() Pink is for girls… Blue is for boys… This is a book I could relate to on so many levels. ![]() Tomboy is a graphic novel about Liz Prince’s childhood of dealing with not fitting in the box society tends to be put us in.
