So Embarrassing: Awkward Moments and How to Get Through Them

So Embarrassing by Charise Mericle Harper is a comic book about ways to deal with embarrassing situations. A boy and a dog teach the reader how to avoid getting embarrassed in public. For example, what to do when you blush, how to not be embarrassed by your parents, and how to deal with the situation when someone tells your secret to everyone.

The boy and the dog explain everything in a funny way with plenty of jokes. I couldn’t help laughing as I read the book. Because it is a graphic novel, the book is full of pictures. They are simple and make the story fun to read. My favorite part of the book was when the dog gives examples of all the things he does that he is not embarrassed about. Anyone who gets easily embarrassed will be able to find ideas to help them in this book.

I recommend this book for eight to twelve year olds. I give this book five stars because it teaches you useful things while also being hilarious.
