Swing it Sunny by Jennifer L. Holm

Cover image for Swing it, SunnyHere is the second in the graphic novel series that started with Sunny Side Up.  In this one Sunny is about to start Middle School.  She misses her brother who has been sent to a military school because of his rebellious behavior, but when he comes home for Thanksgiving, he is not very pleasant.  Sunny gets by and has fun hanging out with friends, watching TV, and eating TV dinners.  There were a lot of fun references to 70's culture that brought back personal memories. Sunny also has a sweet relationship with her grandfather.  It is targeted to those who like Smile or the other memoir type comics.  It was pretty good, not amazing, but I think kids will like it. (217 p. 2017)
