The Sisters Vol. 6

Ethel

A funny and light-hearted graphic novel

Key words: humour, family, sisters, everyday-life, children’s fiction

I have many of those comics in French on my shelves already but I wanted to see if this comic was still funny, even when translated in English. I have to say, even though I found the translation a bit weird sometimes, especially when Maureen speaks in her childish manner, it still made me laugh a lot. I just relate so much to Wendy and Maureen as I have also a smaller (blond) sister and our relationship is so similar to the one described here. And I think most people with a smaller sibling can relate, even if you’re not a girl because at this age, it doesn’t change much. The drawings are also so cute and well done, I enjoyed it a lot. If you observe the different drawings, you’ll notice that the parent’s faces are never drawn, they’re always kind of out of the picture so that we can focus better on the sisters I guess. What do you think? Overall, I would recommend this comic to children with siblings or even adults if you want to read something light-hearted and funny.

Thank you Netgalley for this ebook in exchange of my honest opinion.
