(2) YA Illustrated by Jesse Hamm. Grace Kwon is blithely celebrating her eighteenth birthday when three visitors arrive: herself at ages six, twenty-nine, and seventy. Grace must resolve her three principal issues--self-esteem, loneliness, uselessness--to return life to normal. Occasionally overburdened with message, this graphic novel is strongest when it eschews sentiment. The black-and-white illustrations are notable for the sense of comedic timing embedded in the panel pacing.
