Myra here.
Welcome GatheringReaders. This is a much delayed Virtual Blog Post for my book club for young readers. This month we are reading Raina Telgemeier’s graphic novel Drama.
What I especially loved about the book is how each one was accepted without judgments and without reservations. No one was ‘bullied’ for who they are. And while there were struggles, there was also joy in self-discovery.
I only have a few questions here for you. Please feel free to just jump in and share your thoughts if you have read, or are currently reading the book, regardless of whether you’re in GatheringReaders or not. Do write your responses in the Comments Section.
