Levine Querido spotlights author Julie Fiveash and their new debut graphic novel The Froggy Library at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. 

The Froggy Library is a story about grief, Native American heritage, and community archives and librarianship. It tells the story of one important summer in Anura’s life — as they learn about independence and connect with their community, working with their local library to get to know their neighbors and their history as they spend the season with their grandmother.
