Description
In Good Grief, Sadie Levine recalls the middle school relationship she had with her classmate Aslan. The romance was one more of convenience than any real passion, and in the end, Sadie hurt Aslan’s feelings. Despite a few opportunities, Sadie never apologized before finding out about Aslan’s passing.
Sadie’s cartooning is nuanced and her memories are relatable. Navigating the awkward world of preteen social circles, navigating ideas around grief, and hitting us with splashes of well-timed color, Sadie draws us in to a personal moment.
