This One Summer is a beautifully illustrated story about two friends navigating their way through growing up. Caught between the carefree years of childhood and the difficult issues of adulthood, Rose and Windy watch as the dramas of their sleepy summer lake town unfold. 
 This graphic novel touches on many different subject matters: summer crushes, adoption, miscarriage, pregnancy, marital issues. It can also be used to foster conversations about language and slut-shaming. A surprisingly powerful story, but it may appeal more to adults than the teens it's targeting.
