Cici's Journal: Lost and Found

Description

Everyone has secrets, but no one can hide them from Cici! As a future writer, Cici knows what questions to ask and where to find the clues she needs to unlock peoples' hearts. Yet even though Cici is great at helping others, for a long time now she has kept a dark and painful secret hidden inside herself. Cici's friends and mom all want to help her heal, but she keeps pushing them away. Can a treasure hunt, a mysterious mansion, and an epic beachside fight help her to open up at last?

Joris Chamblain stumbled into graphic novels when he was very little and decided at an early age that comics would be his career. Nowadays he devotes all his time to writing comics and books for kids, and even trying his hand at a novel. He and his many artistic collaborators have quite a few projects in the works. Aurelie Neyret is an illustrator from Lyon, France. When she was little, she loved to hide away and read all night long, and-more than anything else-to draw! Today, her approach to life hasn't changed much, and she works hard to bring her projects to fruition.

Movingly shows how human life contains more mysteries than any hidden room or secret code.--Kirkus The format, a mix of journal and scrapbook, combined with Neyret's ethereal and luminous artwork, will draw in even the most reluctant readers.--School Library Journal
