Honestly why didn’t I discover comics sooner?

I mean, I’ve loved Calvin and Hobbes since I could read, but I didn’t discover the rest of what comics had to offer until I was an adult. No one told me how fun they are!

Day 1 of Txla23 - meet Jerry Craft! I saw a flash of his name tag as he walked by and was like "Jerry? Jerry Craft??" And he turned, looked at my name tag, and said "Cat??" And proceeded to match my energy and pretend we were old friends. So yeah, not only is he an amazing author, he is 100% prepared to commit to a bit and is therefore the best!

School Trip by Jerry Craft

3 out of 5 stars

Jordan and Drew, two main characters from the previous books in the series, are going on a school trip.... to Paris! There's a lot of excitement and anxiety as well as several in the group are leaving the country for the very first time. Not to mention, there's a bit of a mishap as teachers get swapped for chaperones, so chaos occurs with who will pay their fares and such. Thankfully, it smooths itself out and the group has a trip to remember with famous works of art, wonderful skyline views, and pivotal moments where they stand up to bullies.

It did seem like the third book in this series suffered from a similar case as the second. There are too many little plotlines. I'm glad the kids were able to try and get the bully, Andy, to understand how harmful his words are. Despite the fact that Andy consistently says he's joking, his jokes are always at others' expense. If the person you're "joking" with isn't laughing along with you, then it's not a joke. I did like that this book tried to emphasize that, even though you may think your words aren't harmful, they can be.

The rest of the book sort of bounced around from scene to scene, touching on famous locations in Paris. Overall, I think this is still a good book to read, especially if you liked the others, but the first one remains my favorite.

The celebrated author of ‘New Kid,’ a graphic novel aimed at young readers, was caught off guard when his books appeared on lists of inappropriate material.

[readatrix]

Really entertaining graphic novel, and I could ask for nothing more. There's intelligence and humor and interesting characters. That this was banned, even temporarily, is absurd. Yeah, he's a Black kid at a private school where he's a minority, and yeah, the book deals with that, but really kindly and thoughtfully. It asks the reader, and the target audience is kids, to care about Jordan, and to draw their own conclusions. Unless we're going to ban every single book with a PoC character where racism is in any way addressed, which is revolting, there's no reason to take issue with this book's measured humorous observations.

Boy Jerry: And so you glue on the googly eyes, and you have a fun little pinecone friend who’s fun to rattle around if you ever feel the need to get your frustrations out!

Peter: This activity is for five year olds…

Steph: Hey wouldn’t it be funny if we made our pinecones fuck?

Peter: What?!

Steph: I said ‘what if we traded our pinecones for good luck?’
