Booktalk: Drama
Drama, by Raina Telgemeier. Children's Graphic Novel.
Middle schooler Callie lives and breathes theatre, and she's super stoked to be the set designer for her school's production of the Civil War-era musical Moon Over Mississippi. Her big shiny ambition: create a cannon that can really explode onstage!
Raina Telgemeier brings the sweet and funny in this middle grade graphic novel, and it does not disappoint. As the title suggests, of course, there will be drama afoot. Lots and lots of drama revolving around friendships and crushes and homework and ticket sales and lead performers. Callie and her pals Jesse and Justin (twins extraordinaire) certainly have their hands full in the midst of the big production! How will they pull it all off in time to take their final bows?
This book made the drama geek in me giggle with glee--so much of it reminded me of my own backstage days! Telgemeier's illustration style is really colorful and appealing, and those who liked her debut Smile will probably eat this one up too.
