Squint

 

I loved this unique story about a boy named Flint.  He has an eye disease but that doesn't stop him from pursuing his passion for creating comics.  He thinks that if he wins the comic book contest, that his life will change.  He will have friends.  He will be cool.  McKell is a cool girl who has a talent of her own, but like Flint, is afraid to show it.  Her brother has challenged her to be brave and do scary things.  Will they both listen to his message?  This is a beautiful story about being yourself and the power of a kindness.  Step back and see what is important.  I loved its message as well as its comic book subplot.  (FIC MOR)
