I loved this semi-autobiographical graphic novel about a boy's first year attending an elite New York City private school. Kids will relate to the day-to-day insults and injuries that Jordan suffers, and adults will wince and recognize the ways that teachers and other adults slight students of color in ways big and small. The art is intriguing and fun and kids can't resist this book. Recommended for all middle schoolers.
