Drawing Attention

By Marguerite Sauvage and Barbara Perez Marquez

They set out to make a zine. They never expected to start a revolution.

Charlotte is used to being the new girl. First in France, now in America, she's learned how to keep her head down, ace her classes, and wait for things to get better. But when her school's official zine turns out to be full of bad art, tired stereotypes, and one boy's very big ego, Charlotte decides she's had enough.

With the irrepressible Emma by her side, Charlotte creates The Chatty Hill, a rebellious, tell-all comic zine that says what everyone else is thinking. What starts as a protest against the school's painfully uncool publication quickly takes on a life of its own--and gives Charlotte something she never expected: a place where she finally feels like she belongs.

Created by Marguerite Sauvage with Barbara Perez Marquez, Drawing Attention is a vibrant celebration of comics, creativity, friendship, and finding the courage to speak up, perfect for fans of Go With the Flow and The Cartoonists Club.
