Nina in That Makes Me Mad!: Toon Level 2

By Steve Kroll and Steven Kroll

Book Overview

A graphic novel that kids will completely understand. After all, who hasn't been mad when people don't understand you or blame you for things you didn't do or when you don't want to have to do what you're told?"--School Library Journal

"Fresh and buoyant...Knight's art places Nina between siblings in a comfortably domestic setting. He captures her feelings in a broad range of wonderfully expressive body language ranging from hunched-shoulder, irritated frowns to melodramatic sprawls."--Kirkus Reviews

What makes Nina mad? Lots of things--lots of little, everyday things, frustrations that all children will recognize. But Nina knows how to speak her mind and that makes her feel much better. In a series of humorous vignettes, Hilary Knight, the artist who brought the enormously successful Eloise to life, applies his magic to a text by veteran children's book writer Steven Kroll, and brings to life a spunky character who will show young readers how to articulate their feelings.
