Dumbest Idea Ever! by Jimmy Gownley

Great graphic novel about not giving up and keeping your dreams alive! Loved it! Couldn’t put it down. There aren’t any chapter breaks so it’s easy to lose track of time and just keep on reading away the afternoon. The art work reminded me of Raina Telgemeier’s work. She has done Smile, Drama and her upcoming book Sisters due out this August (can’t wait to read that too!). Jimmy Gownley’s art is easy on the eyes and not too cluttered. I find graphic novels a turn off when there is just way too much going on in a single frame or page.  Reluctant readers will enjoy this book (and those who aren’t)!
