The Girl Who Owned a City: The Graphic Novel by Dan Jolley, Jenn Manley Lee, O.T. Nelson, Joëlle Jones

4.0

This graphic novel is based on a novel by O.T. Nelson, adapted by Dan Jolley, and illustrated by Joëlle Jones. I enjoyed the illustrations and the plot. Think what would happen to a world where the older human being is 12 years old. Lisa, the main protagonist, is wiser beyond her years and she means well in trying to save those who ally themselves with her. Her leadership skills are at time immature, but we see her grow and mature as the story evolves. The book is suitable for tweens, teens, and is a bit young for adults but has its merits. A post-apocalyptic graphic novel showcasing survival of the fittest can put things in perspective, especially during a pandemic.
