Boy vs. Shark

A hilarious middle-grade graphic memoir about boyhood, toxic masculinity and a shark named Jaws. For fans of In the summer of 1975, 10-year-old Paul Gilligan doesn''t have a whole lot to worry about other than keeping his comic books untarnished, getting tennis balls off roofs and keeping up with the increasingly bold stunts of his best friend, David. And then Suddenly everyone is obsessing over this movie about a shark ripping people to pieces. And if you haven''t seen it, not only are you missing out, you''re also kind of a wimp. Needless to say, And when Jaws himself becomes a kind of machismo Jiminy Cricket for Paul, what is a scared and overwhelmed boy to do?
