In kindergarten, Jarrett’s teacher asks him to draw his family, with a mommy and a daddy. But Jarrett's family is much more complicated than that. His mom is an addict, in and out of rehab, and in and out of Jarrett's life. His father is a mystery — Jarrett doesn't know where to find him, or even what his name is. Jarrett lives with his grandparents — two very loud, very loving, very opinionated people who had thought they were finished raising kids until Jarrett came along...
Hey Kiddo is a deeply personal glimpse into the author's childhood and is now available as a Book Club Set in our library learning commons. Heart-breaking, thought-provoking, and ultimately uplifting, Jarrett Krosoczka's graphic novel explores the impact of addiction on a family and a young child.
