When I have a moment to breathe, I will most certainly attempt to read this book. Unlike you, I find the cover to be intriguing and upon flipping through the book, the illustrations have grabbed my attention. If I actually finish reading this book, it will be my maiden voyage into the world of comics!
In response to your questions about homelessness, I have been impacted by homeless people on several occasions in my life. In college, I volunteered several days at a drop in center on Skid Row in LA. Eye opening to say the least. As part of a summer enrichment program, I worked at a soup kitchen when I was much younger. While working alongside a friend, she looked up to see someone from her grade school class on the other side of the line. Very impactful.
As an adult, I seem to turn my head and look the other way. Fear takes over. Your words have definitely caused me to think. I look forward to reading the book and accepting the challenge to be a more thoughtful person.
