White Bird by R.J. Palacio

3 stars Middle School Graphic Novel

I liked the story behind this book but I thought that the book was slow at times.  It took about 4 days to finish this book as I just had a hard time getting back into it once I put it down.  I had a hard time liking Sara as I thought she acted selfish yet I liked the friendship she had with Tourteau.  I thought he brought out her good qualities which she needed in my opinion.  My heart was in it for Tourteau as I thought he really was just a good person and he tried to keep his emotions out it.    The text was easy to follow and the illustrations were okay.
