"My mom really loves her job, but she always talks about how advertising in Russia isn't so good.

'I cannot write about bread factories for the rest of my life - she says - Now, America - that's what advertising is all about!'

She says this quite a lot, but I don't really think about it until one night I overhear her talking to my grandmother.

She will be fine, we will take good care of her. You have to take this opportunity. Says my grandmother.

What is going on? Are they talking about me? Why do I need to be taken care of?" -- from the book
Reseña del editor:
A Year Without Mom follows 12-year-old Dasha through a year full of turmoil after her mother leaves for America. It is the early 1990s in Moscow, and political change is in the air. But Dasha is more worried about her own challenges as she negotiates family, friendships and school without her mother. Just as she begins to find her own feet, she gets word that she is to join her mother in America — a place that seems impossibly far from everything and everyone she loves. This gorgeous and subtly illustrated graphic novel signals the emergence of Dasha Tolstikova as a major new talent.
