Tales of a Lizard Boy

English

By (author): Jonathan Hill

Illustrated by: Jonathan Hill

Drawing on the experiences of his Vietnamese American family and his love of 80s sci-fi shows, Jonathan Hill crafts a funny, insightful graphic novel about the immigrant experience and the perils of middle school.

Threatened with diminishing resources, Booger Lizkt and his family flee their lizard community deep below Earths crust to survive above among humans. The Lizkt family of Elberon now passes as the Tomkins family of Eagle Valley. Tommy Tomkins wears a human face to school but cant seem to fit in no matter how he looks. The basketball team becomes a pipe dream when bullies label him a bug eater, and only Dung Tran, an immigrant from Vietnam and fellow outsider, sees Tommy for who he is inside, which is nothing like the outer-space lizard invaders on TVs hottest series. Can their friendship survive the truth? In his first solo middle-grade book, award-winning creator Jonathan Hill perfectly captures the sometimes dystopian drama of middle school while reminding readers of the universal need for belonging.
