I was so excited to find them in graphic novel form by our fave author because I knew my daughter would be drawn in. We hope there is more to come!īy Raina Telgemeier - I loved the Babysitters Club books when I was in elementary school. I love that the sisters learn how important that they are to each other in Sisters and that Raina learns to embrace who she is, how she looks and what being a true friend means in Smile. Raina writes in a relatable and laugh out loud humorous manner. She has read both Smile and Sisters numerous times. My 9 year old stumbled upon Sisters at a school book fair and was instantly drawn to it because 1.) It was about two sisters (definitely relatable!) and 2.) It was a graphic novel which is currently her favorite genre. By Raina Telgemeier - We adore Raina's graphic novels.
