"Schor's pull-no-punches graphic memoir debut depicts her attempts as a young woman to recover from trauma, with striking illustrations that toggle between realism and fragmented, color-saturated dreamscapes. As a Jewish child in Moldova in the late 1980s, Karina begins life as an outsider, but moving with her parents to Israel as "communism was crumbling" only lands her in a place where everything is "exciting, unique... and out of reach" for her impoverished, culture-shocked family. An acquaintance of her father's sexually assaults her, setting off years of discomfort in her body and self-destructive behavior, including an eating disorder. Karina tells her parents about the assault soon after it occurs, and they send her to therapy, but taking the "right" actions doesn't save her from shame-based anxiety as she grows up. After a series of bad, druggy boyfriends contributes to her own drug abuse, Karina is scared into sobriety by an STD. But even going to college and pursuing art don't bring her peace. For comfort, she hangs on to her father's words: "Nothing hurts forever." The plot itself is tragically familiar, but what stands out is the gorgeously grim-yet-colorful art (an image where she's manipulating her own face into smiling by putting her fingers in her eye sockets is especially chilling), and Schor's avoidance of pat confessional-as-healing tropes. This is all the more powerful for its realistic acknowledgement of life's darkness."-- Publishers weekly,

What would life feel like without fear and oppression? Is it possible to find solace in the power of chosen family, underground art collectives, and ultimately revolution?Set in Beirut, Lebanon, a city once known to be a vibrant cultural center of the region.

"From a bestselling illustrator, this utterly unique comic-style book for kids 4 to 8 explores super-small creatures with astounding abilities. Did you know that some of the smallest creatures on Earth have real-life superpowers? The minute oribatid mite can lift more than 1,000 times its own weight. A tiny type of salamander (called an axolotl) can regrow body parts. And the almost microscopic tardigrade? It can survive practically anywhere, even in outer space! Acclaimed author Tiffany Stone combines comic panels and poems to share incredible facts about our world's miniature marvels, while illustrator Ashley Spires' zany cartoon-style illustrations make these itty-bitty superheroes (and supervillains) pop from the page. From glow-in-the-dark sharks to immortal jellyfish and tiny cats with lethal aim, Super Small shows readers that just because you are small, it doesn't mean you aren't super--and sometimes being small can be super in and of itself."--
