The graphic novel format complements the subject matter perfectly. But how she ultimately solves her fitting-in setback puts a creative spin on what our idea of a clique is. When she learns of the concept, cliques become everything to Olive. And just as much as kids, Click shows that adults can feel like this, too. I think at some point, we’ve all felt a bit like Olive: feeling like we don’t fit in, feeling alone in a crowd of people, feeling displaced. There’s so much to take away from this graphic novel. With the performance drawing closer by the minute, will Olive be able to find her own place in the show before the curtain comes up?Ĭlick is a heartfelt and insightful story about navigating friendships, leaning on family and learning to take the stage in the most important role of all. When a school variety show leaves Olive stranded without an act to join, she begins to panic, wondering why all her friends have already formed their own groups… without her. Olive “clicks” with everyone in the fifth grade – until one day she doesn’t. Olive wants to get in on the act… any act! For fans of Raina Telgemeier comes the first book by New York Times bestselling author-illustrator Kayla Miller about friendship and finding where you “click”.
