Review:
This graphic novel is about a high school teenager named Jake. Throughout the novel his life is a boring routine. During his freshman year he is lost and attempts to be a cool sophomore with the help from his imaginary friend, Wilbur, a six-foot frog that only Jake can see. I thought the artwork was simple and clean which helped me to focus on the story at hand and the innocence it possessed. If I was a teenager, I think I would have loved this story, but being an adult, I could not relate to the plot at all. Although, I did not appreciate this story as much as I thought I would, I think the message of "the lessons learned in school aren't always in the classroom" is powerful and important.
