Ethan doesn't want to stand out, he just wants to fit in. But fitting in is tough when your peers call out your ancient cell phone, busted backpack, and discount clothing. To make matters worse, his best friend, Ricky, insists on hanging out with a group of guys who just don't get him . . . they're more interested in playing pranks than playing his favorite card game Bio Battle. Things start looking up, though, when Ethan befriends Aiden, a new kid in school, but it's only matter of time before even that goes sideways. Can Ethan figure out where he belongs without forgetting who he is and who he wants to be.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5450985</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C5450985</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Feuti, Norm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5450985192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063354104/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Physics for Cats]]></title><description><![CDATA[Find out what the hadron's news alert about CERN says!

A once-in-a-lifetime musical talent who innovated the musical genre Afrobeat, Fela was also an outspoken critic of the Nigerian military regime. Fela focuses on a pivotal moment in his life, when he and his mother Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, the renowned Nigerian suffrage activist, were ruthlessly attacked in their own home by soldiers who suffered no repercussions for their violence. It also explores Fela's complex relationship with women, including his mother and Sandra Izsadore, the American singer and activist who revitalize and inspired him. Over the course of his life, Fela married 27 women, fathered numerous children, and founded the Kalakuta Republic commune, where he and his band lived, declaring themselves independent from military rule. As rich and original as its subject, Fela complements the historical with the surreal, featuring parallel dream world sequences, set between this realm and the next, in which Fela receives visions about his future and the dangerous path he will have to walk. Chronicling Fela's perilous journey to capture his destiny--to become the King of Afrobeat, and to advocate for Pan-African unity in the face of European imperialism and white supremacy--this masterful biographical graphic novel celebrates this enduring legend and his legacy, offering inspiration for our own troubled time.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4992932</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4992932</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fagbamiye, Jibola]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4992932192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>Music Is the Weapon</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063058798/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Baby-sitters Club]]></title><description><![CDATA[Mary Anne should never have thrown away that chain letter she got in the mail.

Born with pedigrees but without the pocketbooks to match, The Mitfords were certainly no strangers to lies, intrigue, or scandal. Nancy, Pamela, Diana, Unity, Jessica, and Deborah. All six sisters were weaned on their family's well-documented upper class eccentricities: a ne'er do well would-be entrepreneur father; a stern, stiff-upper-lipped mother; a revolving door of governesses of varying propriety, all against the backdrop of a crumbling estate falling into disrepair. The sisters grew from cloistered turn-of-the-century country girls into debutantes who would marry into political influence--for better or worse. Is it any wonder that a young, working class Mimi in Southern California becomes enamored with The Mitfords' downright fanciful rich-and-famous lifestyle? This charming, inventively cartooned, and lovingly researched biography captures the dramatic, over-the-top antics of high society's strongest personalities as they rubbed elbows with some of history's most infamous fascists and communists. Pond's genius for classic cartooning in the vein of the Vanity Fair caricature and the satirical illustrations of Charles Addams brings the aesthetic decadence of the 1920s and '30s to life with effortless aplomb, warts and all.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4949220</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4949220</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pond, Mimi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4949220192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>The Mitford Sisters and Me</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781770468047/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ivy and Bearlock Holmes]]></title><description><![CDATA[First in a cozy, original full-color chapter book series about the adventures of super-sleuth Ivy and her grandpa Bearlock Holmes.

Simplicity]]></title><description><![CDATA["In 1977, a group called The Spiritual Association of Peers decamps to the woods of the Catskills, taking over an abandoned summer camp. They name their new home Simplicity. In 2081, scholar Lucius Pasternak, a fastidiously organized trans man, tries to keep his head down living in the New York City Administrative and Security Territory, which was founded after the formal dissolution of the United States in 2041. Then, he's offered a job by the mayor, billionaire real estate developer Dennis Van Wervel, to complete an anthropological survey of the people of Simplicity for a history museum he's financing. A wary Lucius is nevertheless drawn in by the people of the small wooded community, intrigued by its strange rituals and in particular by the charming acolyte Amity Crown-Shy. Born and raised on the compound, Amity is comfortable in their own skin, a striking contrast to Lucius' repressed reserve. But Lucius' control starts to slip when he begins to suffer visions both terrifying and sensual--visits from beautiful but nightmarish creatures. Then, just as Lucius discovers that Van Wervel's project is more sinister than it seemed, members of the community begin to disappear, leaving behind grisly signs of struggle. The denizens of Simplicity believe that a being they call "The Lamentation" is responsible for the attacks. Amity and Lucius set out to hunt for the creature in the dangerous Exurb Zones, a wild wood full of libertarian doomsday preppers, wealthy isolationists, and worse. There, they'll finally discover the true threat to their way of life--and what they're willing to do to stop it"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4949206</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4949206</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lubchansky, Mattie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4949206192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>A Novel [Graphic Novel]</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593701126/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Big Nate]]></title><description><![CDATA[It's back-to-school time for sixth-grader Nate Wright, and this just might be the best year ever!

So when the Weekly Bugle needs a story, Nate's happy to make headlines--by (allegedly) starting an epic food fight in the cafetorium! In this latest collection of gut-busting Big Nate comics, Nate's always stirring things up, but at the end of every day, P.S. 38 is still standing. In other words: NO HARM DONE!]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4985900</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4985900</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Peirce, Lincoln]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4985900192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>No Harm Done!</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798881602413/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Baby-sitters Club]]></title><description><![CDATA[A Baby-sitters Club graphic novel adapted by National Book Award longlister and Eisner-nominated cartoonist Ellen T.

Touching on wilderness survival, civics lessons and everything in between, The Canada Handbook is packed with sharp observations and laugh-out-loud cartoons that celebrate what makes this country uniquely Canadian. Whether you're a newcomer or a lifelong Canuck, Adrian Raeside's witty take on life north of the 49th parallel is sure to make you chuckle--and maybe even feel a little prouder to be Canadian.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4942943</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4942943</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Raeside, Adrian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4942943192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781550179538/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jughead, the Hunger]]></title><description><![CDATA[Jughead has always had a ravenous appetite.

For months, Jen has been so focused on trying to figure out how she fits into her new blended family that she hasn't realized she's found her place... that is, until Reese calls her "sister." Excited and content, Jen thought she had figured everything out, but now she's not so sure. A rift emerges between the girls as Andy doubles down on being Reese's ACTUAL sister, while Jen is just the STEP sister. With Andy's attitude bringing a cold front to the farm, it seems like it's going to be a long winter. Maybe between Peapod Farm's first snow and learning how to tap a tree for sugar at winter's end, Jen and Andy both will have a chance to truly understand what it means to be family.]]></description><link>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4930083</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S192C4930083</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Knisley, Lucy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://kawarthalibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4930083192</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle>Sugar Shack [Graphic Novel]</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593125502/MC.GIF&amp;client=ontlibconbib&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweet Valley Twins]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Sweet Valley Twins are ready to rock out as the hottest band comes to town...too bad they don't have permission to go!
