Praise for Weirdo: "I've been singing the praises of Tony Weaver Jr. for years, and here, I'm proud to say, he's given me one more reason to do so. Weirdo is more than a graphic novel about bullying or misfits. It's a blinding light of a tale about a boy who fights to become himself. About an oddball who finds wonder in his own weirdness. It's a reminder that we all have a place. And people. And some of us have a particular point of view on the world. I'm so happy Tony is using his to bring such palpable joy, love, and imagination to it." --Jason Reynolds, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Look Both Ways "Tony's Heartfelt story reminds us Why Embracing Individuality Radically Defies Obstacles." --Jerry Craft, 2020 Newbery and Coretta Scott King Book Award winner for New Kid "Weirdo empowers readers to celebrate their own identities and offers hope to find the crew that will love you for all of your magnificent quirks " --Jarrett J.
