Ah, the intentions are good, and the characters and story are appealing, but...there isn't actually enough plot or characterization for this graphic novel to be truly engaging. Also, the concert at the end, which is supposed to be the climax, is simply flat - obviously one can't hear the music, and the video art in the background never shows up, so that leaves us with the lyrics: "Stick to it!/Success don't happen quick/Stick to it!/ Shake it up!/Give life a kick!"...Um, no. Giving three stars because I really felt middle of the fence-ish...five kids...all different...all talent-less...form a band (doesn't everyone)...I would never recommend this to high school...perhaps lower middles school...it has cute art...and the story isn't bad but it beats around the bush a bit and by the time you truly get the hang of it you are mid-way thru...sales and proceeds all go to a Childrens Hospital so it was worth the money
Do You like book Zebrafish (2010)?
This wasn't my favorite book of all time, but it does go by very fast! I read it in an hour.
