Bounce Back 3: Sew Totally Nala

This is age-appropriate, kid-friendly manga for kids - both elementary and middle school - that tells a story about friendship, fashion, and fun! Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier and Shannon Hale.
Nala loves fashion - especially kawaii fashion, inspired by Japanese streetwear. And Nala is about to have the best summer ever, as she attends a special fashion camp in the city.
Fashion camp is challenging, and there are other kids attending who are really talented. Nala wants to stay true to her designs, but wonders if they will measure up. As her self-doubt grows, she is visited by a squirrel named Timothy, who claims he can help her. But what does a squirrel know about fashion?
Timothy may prefer peanuts to kawaii outfits, but he knows for sure that Nala totally needs to build her confidence. Together, Nala and Timothy rise to a fun summer challenge that will remind readers how good it feels to believe in themselves.
