Jerry Craft - School Trip: A Graphic Novel - at Conn Ave
Jordan and his friends from Riverdale Academy Day School are going on a School Trip to Paris. But when their trusted faculty guides are replaced, the school trip takes an unexpected—and hilarious—turn. Especially when trying to find their way around a foreign city ends up being almost as tricky as navigating the same friendships, fears, and differences that they struggle with at home. Can Jordan and his friends embrace a new language, unfamiliar food, and a different culture? Or will they all end up feeling like the "new kid"?
Jerry Craft is the author-illustrator of #1 New York Times bestselling graphic novels New Kid, and its companion book, Class Act. New Kid was the first graphic novel to win the Newbery Medal, and in the same year was awarded The Coretta Scott King Author Award and the Kirkus Prize for Young Readers' Literature. Craft received his BFA from the School of Visual Arts and now lives in Florida.
Ages 8-12
