Description: SUNSHINE, a young adult graphic memoir written and illustrated by National Book Award finalist Jarrett J.

It’s the moving follow-up to his graphic memoir, Hey, Kiddo, which detailed growing up with a drug-addicted mother, a missing father, and two unforgettably opinionated grandparents.
