From the Eisner-nominated duo behind the instant bestseller Allergic
comes a fun new graphic novel about finding your own space... especially
when you're in a family of nine!
Eleven-year-old Avery Lee loves living in Hickory Valley, Maryland. She
loves her neighborhood, school, and the end-of-summer fair she always
goes to with her two best friends. But she's tired of feeling squished
by her six siblings! They're noisy and chaotic and the younger kids love
her a little too much. All Avery wants is her own room -- her own space
to be alone and make art. So she's furious when Theo, her grumpy older
brother, gets his own room instead, and her wild baby brother, Max,
moves into the room she already shares with her clinging sister Pearl!
Avery hatches a plan to finally get her own room, all while trying to
get Max to sleep at night, navigating changes in her friendships, and
working on an art entry for the fair. And when Avery finds out that her
family might move across the country, things get even more complicated.
Megan Wagner Lloyd and Michelle Mee Nutter have once again teamed up to
tell a funny, heartfelt, and charming story of family, friendship, and
growing up.
