Recenzii

A wonderful story about friendship, self-belief and SERIOUSLY awesome girls!
This spiky, winning graphic novel captures the bittersweetness of finding a new passion and saying goodbye to your former, more uncertain self
A refreshing, witty story of trying, failing, reinvention, ambition, team spirit and how to be a decent friend
Vivid and funny . . . The graphic format makes it fizz . . . And the contact sport of roller derby makes for a fascinating setting. Expressive, fearsomely physical and dominated by women, the author brilliantly conveys its appeal
A note-perfect middle-grade story of friendships lost and rebuilt, wrapped up in lively graphic novel form. Astrid is a peach of a hero, a likeable misfit desperate to be a great skater like her idol. Her discovery that it's not as easy as it looks will resonate with anyone who's ever dreamed of glory and fallen flat on their face; her response to disappointment will lift the heart
Roller Girl's message of self-discovery, friendship, and perseverance will roll its way right into your heart
Full of charm . . . Don't let this one roll past
Readers will stand up and cheer

For most of her twelve years, Astrid has done everything with her best friend Nicole.
