A deadly virus killed every adult on Earth, leaving only the kids behind. With her parents gone, Lisa is responsible for her little brother, Todd. She has to make sure they stay alive.

To the last gram

written by Shreya Davies and illustrated by Vanessa Wong

Divya has to negotiate a balancing act between her culture and fitting in, her teenage years where appetites must be managed to keep up appearances and her early adulthood where responsibilities feel overwhelming. TO THE LAST GRAM is an honest and hopeful story of feeling at odds with and finding a home in one’s community, family, and body, and of the yet-unfurling journey to embrace the fullness of life.

Divya’s narration is candid and solid—and when her words falter, Wong’s illustrations, in browns, oranges, and white, fill in the gaps and have a powerful effect. The surreal, sometimes dreamlike artwork captures the irrational thinking that accompanies these disorders and renders them tangible.

Visceral and unflinching.

Written and Illustrated by Nadine Redlich

One imagines that existence as a stone is rather cold and hard. Does a stone have feelings? Of course not! But far from it.
