A funny and delightful graphic novel
Key words: graphic novel, children, fiction, disease, divorce
I am so glad LeLombard made this first volume free to read during the lockdown. I loved it. Rebecca is a young girl who catches a disease, Ernest, who also becomes her friend. She is so adorable and funny. Her life is not easy but she keeps her innocence and her humour to reunite her parents. The drawings really add to the cuteness of the book. I think the graphic novel is really well done because it talks about quite a big topic but it does it in a funny and light way. Rebecca is small for her age due to her weak metabolism and she doesn’t seem to have any friends as if she hurts herself, it can turn bad really quickly. I think that’s why I got attached to her so much. I am glad she has a big sister next to her sometimes. This series also talks about divorce and how children can potentially react to it. Rebecca’s reaction for example, is quite funny from the outside but it must be difficult for her. It is very interesting. I can’t wait to read the next volumes.
I recommend this series.

Rebecca is a very sick little girl and Ernest her best friend is a microbe. Rebecca’s parents are being pulled apart and she wants to be anything other then a sick little girl. The graphics are fun and festive, however with the small and heavy text in this graphic novel seems too old for the grade for which it appears to be geared. Rebecca is six years old, but this novel is for at least 3rd or 4th grade.
