The older woman who cleans up roadkill is thought to be a witch, especially as when she is outdoors she wears a black trenchcoat, fairly witchlike hat and has an eyepatch. But she is quite a charming girl eager to learn with a great capacity for knowledge. Snap is thought to be a weird and angry, troubled child by her peers. It’s a book that reminds you, however, that who you are isn’t how society might initially typecast you. Set in a trailer park, there is a lot of racial and age diversity in the heroes as well as lesbian and transgender representation. The inclusivity is this book is wonderful. ![]() ![]() Full of magic, mystery and positive life lessons, Snapdragon is one of the very best graphic novels I’ve read lately. The story follows Snapdragon-there is a family tradition to name daughters after favorite flowers-as she befriends an old woman everyone believes to be a witch. Even better, this book is full of wonderful inclusive representation and trans positivity. Leyh, known for her work on The Lumberjanes and her webcomic SuperCakes, has crafted a really delightful and robust narrative with plenty of side-plots, flashbacks and a cast of dynamic characters that all centers on the theme of how looks can be deceiving. Snapdragon by Kat Leyh is absolutely charming and heartwarming. ![]()
