ReviewsThis innovative opener for the Canadian series, translated from French, is told through journal entries, and the format is a glorious mishmash of vivid artwork, scribbled hand lettering, simple typefaces, poignant self portraits, and occasional collage. A riot of color and emotion, every page offers a new treat for the reader and a new experience for Franny. It's a wonderful world stuffed full of creativity, mystery, and transformative growth.

SynopsisFranny is a feisty 14-year-old with a gift for turning her thoughts and feelings into drawings. She lives in Montreal with her father, a sewing machine repair man by day and inventor by night. When he's invited to pursue his research in Japan, Franny is sent to a small town far away from Montreal and all her friends. She will meet a part of her family she has never heard of before and will have to adapt to a new school and a new life. Soon, she will discover that this is the town where her mother lived before she died, when Franny was very young. This leads Franny to investigate the mystery behind her mother's death and discover a terrible truth.
