The graphic novel “TomBoy” by Liz Prince is extremely relatable. I personally loved this book for that same reason. The book is based on her own childhood stories and how she grew up being a tomboy. She grew up like an average child, the only difference was that she was into thing that were/are considered for “guys” which was why she was considered a tomboy. Although she was happy being a tomboy, she did struggle with what it meant to be a girl. In the novel she says that she felt out of place and different.
One that I most liked was when she spoke about how she was a Girl Scout. I really enjoyed this part because me and some of my friends used to be Girl Scouts as well. At some point, we both open our eyes to the real world and how it treats girls who prefer male things. Her experience as a girl scout is different from mine, due to the type of entertainment she had.
While reading this, I felt intrigued and wanting to read more. I recommend this book for girls, as well as boys who felt a bit different from society, not wanting to follow society’s usual behavior. It gives girls support to be who they want to be without society holding them back. You can find this book in the library.

lo que observo es que ellos dan muchos detalles del libro y de mas o meno de que se trata, el exito que atrae el lector pero algo que sugiero es que le den una recamendacion
