"This One Summer is a graphic novel for readers who appreciate the form, as well as for fans of traditionally told coming-of-age stories. If I worked at a bookstore, I’d be hand-selling it to customers who adored Raina Telgemeier’s graphic memoir “Smile” but are now ready for more complex themes. Eagerly hand-selling it: This is a lovely book.” –The New York Times Book Review
