Story and art by Box Brown.
In Child Star, bestselling author Box Brown creates a biography of Owen Eugene, a fictional 1980s child actor.
Owen had it all: a hit sitcom on prime time, a Saturday morning cartoon, and a memoir on the bestseller list. The secret to his success was his talent for improvisation... and his small size. But Hollywood ate him alive. On screen he made the whole world laugh, even as his life fell apart behind the scenes. Inspired by real-life child stars, Box Brown created Owen Eugene, a composite character whose tragic life is an amalgam of 1980s pop culture.
In this fictional documentary-style graphic novel, we see how growing up in the spotlight robs young actors of a true childhood.

1st printing. Story and art by Kristin Varner. From the author of Horse Trouble comes a middle grade graphic novel perfect for fans of PAWS and ALLERGIC! Ash is a good kid at heart. But his grades are slipping, and when he gets caught vandalizing an old building, it's the last straw for his mom. It's decided: Ash will spend some time away from the city, at his dad's place on Ferncliff Island. It's bad enough that Ash has no friends on the island, but his parents are also making him do community service! He volunteers at the local animal shelter, even though he's not really a dog person. Dogs slobber! They smell! And the dogs at the shelter bark, bark, and bark. But as Ash bonds with the dogs-especially Cooper, a clever, fun-loving pointer that gives sloppy kisses-he starts to see that maybe his time on Ferncliff Island isn't a total loss. Hardcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8 1/2-in., 304 pages, full color. All Ages Cover price $22.99.
