Nicknamed 'Swamp Kid' by his classmates, Russell has algae for hair, a tree trunk for a right arm, and a carrot for a finger. Also, Russell's favorite meal is sunlight. Also, a frog lives in his arm. In this notebook, Russell details in both hilarious text and color illustrations (complete with ketchup stains!) what it's like to be different, to discover his true talents, to avoid the intense stare of Mr. Finneca (his suspicious science teacher who may also be a mad scientist), and to find humor in the everyday weird.

(W/A/CA) Pat Grant In his follow-up to the critically acclaimed Blue, Pat Grant confirms his reputation as 'the Australian Mark Twain' (Craig Thompson, author of Blankets and Habibi) with a page-turning graphic novel about economic inequality and exploitation, desperation, and the gambler's addiction to hope even in the worst of times.

Things are hotter and wetter than they used to be, giving the whole place the vibe of a sweaty armpit.
