Graphic Novel

This book would be an interesting read for adolescent girls, grades 5-8.

"Lou: Down in the Dumps" is a graphic novel that takes the reader through the everyday "slum" life of a young girl named Lou. In this book, Lou faces challenges within her friendships, home life, and relationship. In the end, her conflicts are boiled down to the simple fact that she's a growing adolescent girl, and the emotions that she's experiencing are bound to happen. Personally, I believe this book is out of age range for children as young as 5-8. Simply because, younger audiences won't be able to connect, understand, or relate to majority of the story line of this novel.

The only possible teaching point I would be able to extract from this book, is "communication is key". Throughout the book, Lou had conflict within her friendships. At the end of the book, we can see that the problems were easily solved with a little bit of communication from both parties.
