Sunny, vol 1, by Taiyo Matsumoto, 224 pages

Sunny, vol 1, by Taiyo Matsumoto, 224 pages

I read this based on the cover art- I really like that style of drawing and the few color pages were really attractive.  The story is about a group of children living in a group foster home; some have parents who visit on the weekend, while others do not.  Much of their time is spent in Sunny, an old car that doesn't work, but requires imagination.  Each child gets a chapter, and they are all fairly poignant and frequently sad.  It was a little bit of a downer, but definitely a brilliant downer, if that helps.
