We'll meet Thursday, April 11 at 6:00 in the Children's Room to share our thoughts on the fiction graphic novel set in 1980s Flint, “Strikers” by Kiel Phegley and Jacques Khouri.

"Evan just wants to win a game. Bobby would rather fight than win. Hockey―and life―keep handing them both losses. Their team, the Strikers, has a roster of rejects in hand-me-down coats but lacks good equipment, a deep bench, and a coach who shows up on time. Their town of Flint, Michigan, has been down on its luck their whole lives. The boys may not understand each other, but together, they’ll find their reasons to keep taking the ice. Strikers is a hilarious, hard hitting, and moving story about how to stay on your skates when you only see Ls in your future."

Copies are available for checkout at the library!
