Drama by Raina Telgemeier, 233 pages

I love Telgemeier's graphic novels. They ring so true, with all the highs and lows of being a preteen and teen. I would love my youngest daughter to read this, with her love of acting and involvement in school plays, but being a teenager, she won't read anything I recommend. Maybe I can sneakily get our teen librarian to recommend it. I would love for Samantha to have Callie's confidence, but I see so much of Sam in the crushes, and feeling like gay theater guys would make better boyfriends, except for that whole liking boys thing, lol.
