    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.
