A hilarious middle-grade graphic memoir about boyhood, toxic masculinity and a shark named Jaws. For fans of Guts and New Kid. nIn the summer of 1975, 10-year-old Paul Gilligan doesnt have a whole lot to worry about other than keeping his comic books untarnished, getting tennis balls off roofs and keeping up with the increasingly bold stunts of his best friend, David. n nAnd then Jaws comes to town. n nSuddenly everyone is obsessing over this movie about a shark ripping people to pieces. And if you havent seen it, not only are you missing out, youre also kind of a wimp. n nNeedless to say, Jaws leaves young Paul a cowering mess, and underlines the growing gap between him and David as well as the distance between where he stands and the worlds expectations of a boys manliness. n nAnd when Jaws himself becomes a kind of macho Jiminy Cricket for Paul, what is a scared and overwhelmed boy to do?n
