We're not talking about mean girls and bullying, just finding your niche or sub-group. The cliques demonstrated here aren't particularly exclusionary, it should be said. Although ultimately the message is about finding your place without needing a clique, it's not particularly down on cliques either. This book is titled Click, and deals with struggling to find "your group." The inference is that we're talking about cliques, although I can't remember if that spelling is ever used. As such, it makes a great hi-lo, reluctant reader pick. It reminded me of Little Robot in that way, though the content is definitely aimed a couple years older. There are whole spreads with no words at all. The word count is relatively low for a book aimed at the upper elementary age group. The cast is realistically diverse, and I liked the relationships with adults as modeled in the story (yeah, Aunt Molly). go to a full-page panel for something, but it was mostly very effective.
There were a few moments when I wanted the illustrations to rest in a moment a little longer - i.e. The illustrations are super accessible, full-color, easy to follow, tell the story well. I took this out to local elementary schools in May/June 2019, and many kids asked me to talk about this one - kids totally gravitate to the cover. The Raina Telgemeier fans are going to eat this up.
