    In the Hands of Boys (2005 Melody Shickley) 1

    A tense emotional drama filled with grief and indignation told largely as a complicated back-story, this challenging black and white title by Xeric recipient Melody Shickley still manages to draw the reader in and move along with a steady pace. A two-volume work, In The Hands of Boys deals with a range of issues surrounding the lead characters efforts to adopt the non-English-speaking son of her recently deceased and somewhat estranged best friend. Shickley won the Baltimore City Papers 2005 Best Comic award for this book which she wrote and illustrated. 48 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.95.
