From Gavin Aung Than, creator of the viral webcomic Zen Pencils, comes a semi-autobiographical graphic novel that's perfect for fans of The Cartoonist's Club!
Eddie Maung loves to draw. He's happiest when he's drawing comics about an unstoppable superhero named Dagger. Eddie dreams of becoming a cartoonist someday, but his parents don't understand his "scribbling." They wish he were more like his older brother, who always gets good grades effortlessly. On top of that, Eddie's dad won't let him forget how difficult it was to immigrate from Myanmar so he could give the family a better life in Australia.
