Drama: A Graphic Novel Kindle & comiXology

My 8 year old LOVES this book. She reads a lotAnd this is what she goes to for her comfort reading.

My granddaughter went right into reading it. All comic strips. She actually asked for it.

The media could not be loaded.  I like this book that it’s a funny moments for anybody and all the pictures are kind of one funny thing

I am a graduate student taking a literacy class and we were assigned "Drama". This was my first time reading a graphic novel and it took me a minute to adjust to the reading. The book is an easy read and an avid reader you will breeze through this in no time at all. So, you are reading the reviews so that you get a good understanding of what you are about to purchase for yourself, a friend or a family member. I am going to answer the following questions:What age do I think this book is written for?I would recommend this book for students in 6th grade and above.Are there any controversial topics in this book?This book does talk about students having interest in similar genders. Some adult, parents or students may choose not to read this book because it discusses topics that they may not want to discuss with their child or student at an earlier or middle school ager.What are my recommendations?I think that this book is awesome. It is written well, has a great plot and is written to talk about people's everyday experiences growing up in middle experiencing different challenges amongst peers.In the end, it is your choice as a parent, child, or teacher to read this book. I hope this he

The books is great, fun to read and the graphics are great. The only thing is that it has gay characters and no heads up to parents for questions that the kids reading them may have. I have discussed homosexuality with my child and now she has also discussed it with school friends telling them about the book…A heads up would’ve been nice

My 10 year old loves this book series. She was so excited that she got it as a birthday gift

My 7 year old daughter has been loving this writer. There are a number of graphic novels that she will reread and this is one of them. I think one of the things that draws her to it is that it reflects what life is actually like for other kids. I later found out it's on some banned books lists which gave us the opportunity to discuss what that means, why it was banned and how banning books is not cool. We talked about how important it is to think for ourselves instead of blindly accepting what we here. The book is hardly "sexually explicit" (reason for ban). The only thing in it that I could remotely think they meant is that there's a kiss. If I recall correctly, a boy has a crush on another boy. Which again was a great talk about how we can have crushes on anyone, doesn't matter what gender.

Raina Telgemeier makes a good series of books for children, including Smile. Sisters, Guts, and yes Drama... Which the title seems to bring out in a lot of these reviews. Yes, this book, in accordance to the changing of our times, introduces a homosexual relationship between two characters. A factual part of life that occurs in adolescence for many people discovering who they are. This book approaches the subject with the same flare that the author approaches other subjects in past books like Smile. It's sad to see homophobia getting 1 star reviews from parents who are acting like their children are damaged. My daughter is 7 years old and has a collection of Telgemeier's books. When she read Drama as a library check-out she asked me why the boys like each other. I told her, quite simply, "Love is different to different people. All that matters is that we don't hurt one another and respect each other for who we are" and the topic ended. We never discussed it again and, to be clear, she's mentally sound, happy, and perfectly normal... If it takes you weeks of trials and tribulations to explain a normal fact of life to your child you're probably doing it wrong, but that's not my place to judge and I don't personally care. The book, as a whole for context and material for young readers growing up in changing times, is great. And the author's work doesn't deserve reduced stars because some people are stuck in mindsets left over from the 1600's...

El libro llegó muy bien. Es original, en inglés y de muy buen material.

My son loved this book, he reads a lot of books from this author in school so I had to purchase this one and ghost for him myself. I don’t understand why people are so bothered by this book, saying their children are exposed to sexual topics like transgender people; I suggest learning the difference between sex, gender, sexual orientation, and how this book is no different than your child being exposed to people sharing a kiss. It’s ridiculous and guess what, it’s 2021. Our children are growing up in a beautifully progressive time where inclusion is important, not segregation. I hope you learn how to be better parents through your children, I’d hate to think what would happen if I reacted like some of you when your child reads this book and sees your reaction, only to find out later on in life they themselves are transgender. Anyways, I can’t control other people, but I can control myself and what my son is taught at home, I really love that he takes an interest in learning about what’s important to others.

mi hija está disfrutando el regalo

Drama is a graphic book illustrated by raina telgemeier, one of my favorite authors and illustrators ! The books protaginist is a young girl called callie who is funky,full of ideas ,determined and has a passion for drama! The book covers some very good and important issues like being gay or lesbian. As drama unfolds callie discovers some new friends. They are twin brothers and are gay . But thete is a difference that seperates these two budding actors. Jesse is shy and unable to express his feelings about being gay whereas Justin is extremely open about being gay and feels extremely comfortable . Will Jesse be able to feel comfortable and open when expressing his feelinhs a bout being gay.I also loved watching callie and her friends create there show and produce it . The drawings are excellent and the plot is 10 out of 10!!!!!!!On the night of a big dance something upsets Callie( i dont want to tell you or i might spoil it for you !) . Will callie be able to control her feelings and be able to understand the life of her gay friends and will the show be able to go on despite a disaster in rehearsels?This is an excellent book that will make young readers more aware of LGBT and should help gay or lesbian people to feel free and happy about being themselves ! I cant wait for the next book Raina Telgemeier writes! :) :) :)
