Seventh grader Jordan Banks loves nothing more than drawing cartoons about his life.But instead of sending him to the art school of his dreams, his parents enrol him in a prestigious private school known for its academics, where Jordan just happens to be one of the few kids of color in his entire grade. As he makes the daily trip from his Washington heights apartment to the upscale Riverdale Academy day school, Jordan soon finds himself torn between two worlds not really fitting into either one. Can Jordan learn to navigate his new school culture while keeping his neighbourhood friends and staying true to himself? With humor, heart, and honesty, Cartoonist Jerry craft shines a spotlight on the experience of being a black student in a predominantly white school, tackling tough topics like racism and microaggressions. This full-color graphic novel will also speak to any kid who’s dealt with the challenges of middle school.
