Click (A Click Graphic Novel, 1)

I purchased this book for my 10 year old daughter, and I'm so glad that I did because it teaches various things about friendships, life lessons, morals, things a tween girl needs to learn about. I've actually now purchased the entire series because they are just that good. If you're a parent and you're trying to figure out a way to teach your daughter about life experiences and trying to encourage them to read all at the same time this is perfect for you.

**Navigating Friendships in Click** In Click, Kayla Miller delivers an engaging graphic novel that resonates with the experiences of middle school students. The story follows Olive, who feels like she connects effortlessly with her fifth-grade classmates—until an upcoming school variety show leaves her without a performance group. As her friends form their own acts, Olive finds herself feeling stranded and anxious about her place in the social landscape. Throughout the story, Olive grapples with feelings of isolation and the challenge of finding her own spot in the show, all while learning crucial lessons about friendship and self-acceptance. Miller's vibrant illustrations and relatable narrative shine a light on the complexities of growing up, emphasizing the importance of leaning on family and friends in difficult times. Click is a heartfelt journey that perfectly captures the essence of young friendships and the insecurities that come with them. This graphic novel is an essential read for those who appreciate stories about personal growth and the search for belonging, making it a wonderful addition to the World of Click books.

I purchased a copy of this book for my cousins (ages 8 & 10) and they both loved it! They tell me they are both anxiously anticipating the next book in the series, “Camp”. As a longtime fan of Kayla Miller's independent comics, it was exciting to see their unique perspective applied to content for young audiences. It was refreshing to read a story about a character like Olive who doesn’t "fit in" but isn't explicitly ostracized as a social pariah—Olive HAS friends, she just doesn't have "best" friends. Even though the story centers on a character who feels like she doesn't know where she belongs, this feeling is universal. Everyone has felt like this at some point in their life, ESPECIALLY in middle school. I love the pacing of this book, particularly the way moments are allowed to breathe. Some of my favorite parts of the book are scenes with minimal dialog where the story is carried forward based on the characters' expressions and the setting. Each environment is illustrated with personality and attention to detail, helping readers become invested in Olive's world and problems. The dynamics between Olive's classmates and the complicated relationship between Olive's pragmatic mother and the more "oddball" Aunt Molly, leave me wanting to know more about these characters. Which is good, because more is on the way! I highly recommend you share "Click" with the young readers in your life.

In this book, everyone has an act to do except Olive This book is about all of finding and herself, and seeing which actual join if one at all.

The illustrations in this book are amazing, it is very relatable and funny. I would definitely read this book again. Five out of five read.

The best I finished it in one day

My daughter loved this entire series! I

Hey! This book is awesome. So far, I’ve loved your books to pieces! The coloring, the writing, and the way it’s written is just- AHHHH!!! It’s bumpy, like hills. Up, down, Up, down, Up, down…Olive felt lonely when she wasn’t picked in a group, and felt left out. She needed an idea- like yours! I love the idea of shoving in some old comedy shows… I know there not “ really “ comedy, but they kind of are! Hit me up! Just one bad thing…left on the biggest Cliffhanger I think I’ll ever read! It’s just.. I know it takes a while to draw and write, but still. It felt like eating half an ice cream cone, then dropping the rest. Total ouch. But, it’s still awesome. Keep up the good-work!
