Elegant, but very slight (and short). My least favourite so far of Larson's books. I guess it was an early one, so her storytelling hadn't developed.
The story is mediocre, but the art is gorgeous! I love the way she laid out the panels, and how she integrated the text into the art.

An interesting story about a french girl leaving home for the first time and her dreams.
So sweet! I love this graphic novel.

Larson’s techniques demonstrate her thorough knowledge of the comic medium; they couldn’t be done as elegantly anywhere else.
