I like Raina Telgemeier's fluid, spunky, unpretentious cartooning a lot, and it is beautifully matched here by a very timely story that is all about embracing the Other. You know, rather than "bombing the shit out of" it.

Stewart Tame It may be more coincidence than design that makes this timely. "Acceptance of the Other" is a fairly common literary theme, after all.
