Hand-Me-Down

Novinka

For fans of Hey, Kiddo and Flamer, this moving children’s graphic memoir tells an intergenerational story about the struggles we face and the love we share. Damian has lived with his grandma ever since his mother died when he was a baby. Now, all he has left of his mother are old photos and the stories Nanny shares with him. Nanny has a lot of stories, some about his mom and some about her own childhood growing up in foster care. When Damian feels lonely, he imagines what life was like when his mother and grandmother were middle schoolers like him. Through memories, stories, and daydreams, he feels closer to the mother he lost and begins to see the mother he found. From Damian Alexander, author of Other Boys, comes a touching graphic memoir about hardship, connection, and the love we pass down across generations.
