Praise for Allergic:Instant BestsellerSchool Library Journal Best Graphic Novel of the YearAmerican Library Association Best Graphic Novel for ChildrenNew York Public Library Best Book for Kids"There's a lot packed into this graphic novel beyond the allergy story line: how family dynamics change with a new baby's arrival, how kids struggle to fit in and find friends. But while it addresses serious issues and emotions, Allergic, unlike hives and sneezing, is mostly madcap fun." -- The New York Times"Allergic is the sweetest story you'll read all year. A touching chronicle of a young girl's severe allergies woven into a meaningful journey of friendship, family, and self-discovery." -- Terri Libenson, New York Times bestselling author of Invisible Emmie★ "A heartachingly enjoyable tale of resilience." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review"Readers will root for this realistic and relatable fifth grader, who's capable of kindness as well as envy and self-doubt... readers will easily identify with her trials and accomplishments." -- School Library Journal"Vibrant... easy to recommend." -- Booklist"Warm and well-paced... an encouraging tale for young readers engaging with the world of pets, family, and friendships." -- Publishers WeeklyPraise for the Allergic Audiobook:American Library Association Notable Children's Recording★ "A first-rate full-cast audio treatment… Thanks to expertly mixed recording effects and a bouncy music score, the production sounds like a radio drama: overlapping voices, yipping dogs, and multitude of noises." -- Booklist, starred reviewPraise for Squished:Instant National Indie BestsellerBarnes & Noble Most Anticipated Kids' BookGood Housekeeping Kids' Book Award WinnerAmerican Library Association Best Graphic Novel for ChildrenBank Street College Best Children's Book★ "A charming and achingly relatable snapshot of life in a big family." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review★ "Nutter's warm and appealing artwork comically captures the crowded chaos of the Lee household and the matter-of-fact diversity of the town, and the sun-dappled visuals will appeal to anyone who loves the work of Raina Telgemeier or Shannon Hale... This stirring and dynamic graphic novel is sure to win a lot of hearts." -- Booklist, starred review★ "Avery’s plights are amusing and approachable, with art from Nutter that is gentle and light-filled. This engaging graphic novel tackles very real feelings and will keep readers invested in Avery’s life. Highly recommended." -- School Library Journal, starred review"Brightly colored landscapes and keen dialogue artfully depict common eldest daughter woes." -- Publishers Weekly"A warm, heartfelt, relatable comic that shines a light on a "squished" sibling as Avery tries to become more independent and weather life’s changes while still finding her own place at home." -- The Horn Book"There is so much to love about this title... The storytelling is fast-paced and has many humorous moments... The artwork is busy and offers the frenetic feel of the hustle and bustle of a large family. The colorization looks vivid and warm, which wraps up the warm tingly feelings all readers will be left with. Another great addition to the middle-grade comics collection." -- School Library Journal's Good Comics for Kids Blog"This delightful graphic novel about growing up and carving out your own space is perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier." -- Barnes & Noble"An exciting graphic novel by Megan Wagner Lloyd and Michelle Mee Nutter. Most kids will relate to Avery and enjoy this heartwarming story. -- Kellen Bhatt, kid reporter for TIME for Kids"This graphic novels underscores that seemingly opposite things can both be true: You can adore a large family's sense of belonging but still crave some alone time (and your own room). Fans of Sisters will gobble up this book." -- Good Housekeeping
