#1 New York Times bestselling cartoonists Raina
Telgemeier and Scott McCloud team up for a one-of-a-kind friendship
story about creativity and self-expression. Welcome to the
club!
Makayla is bursting with ideas but doesn't know how to
make them into a story. Howard loves to draw, but he struggles
to come up with ideas and his dad thinks comics are a waste
of time. Lynda constantly draws in her sketchbook but
keeps focusing on what she feels are mistakes, and Art simply loves
being creative and is excited to try something new.
They come together to form The Cartoonists Club,
where kids can learn about making comics and use their
creativity and imagination for their own storytelling adventures!
A full colour graphic novel to inspire a new generation of young
cartoonists!
Bursting with creativity, self-expression and imagination, it
blends narrative, how-to and comics magic
From the author and illustrator of the critically-acclaimed graphic
novel memoir, Smile, Raina Telgemeier and award-winning
cartoonists Scott McCloud
