El Deafo honored
I was proud to be the colorist of Cece Bell's "El Deafo" even before it started winning awards. It's a truthful, funny memoir of Cece's childhood, and helps readers understand what it can be like to live with hearing loss.
I'm extra proud that it has been named a Newbery Honor Book (so it will now have a silver medal printed on its covers!). And today I learned that it has been nominated for two of comics' Eisner Awards. Congratuations to Cece Bell, my amazing friend!
