Chickenpox | Remy Lai

2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read

This hilarious and heartwarming contemporary middle-grade graphic novel is about eldest sister Abby, who is sick of being trapped at home with her FOUR younger siblings as they all suffer from the chickenpox--for fans of Guts and Allergic. All big sister Abby wants is to spend more time with her friends, far away from the sticky fingers and snooping eyes of her annoying brothers and sisters. But when a case of the chickenpox leaves the Lai kids covered in scratchy red spots and stuck at home together for two weeks of nonstop mayhem, Abby thinks this might be the end . . . of her sanity. Yet she feels responsible for the situation since her best friend was Patient Zero and brought chickenpox into their home. Will the itch to escape her siblings overwhelm Abby or will she realize being a big sister isn't all bad? Full of heart and hijinks, Chickenpox showcases what gets us through good times and bad: family.

Chickenpox | Remy Lai

This is a good middle grade graphic novel/memoir. The central character is a parentified 12 yo girl in Indonesia, and the book tells the story of a several-week period being stuck at home while they all have chickenpox.

Coming out in January! I really liked this middle grade graphic novel about a 12 year old with 4 younger siblings. They all get chicken pox at the same time and spend a week in the house together, and chaos ensues. The author (it‘s autobiographical) grew up in the 90s, and I LOVE how the book shows and explains things from that setting that I remember from my childhood. Lots of growth, humor, nuance. Raina Telgemeier-esque.

sarahbarnes This literally happened to me in the 90s. Well, late 80s. 😁 4mo
