She tells him about her life, her family, her school, her friends, her hopes, her dreams and her fears. And then he creates a one-page comic strip based on what she says.This book is a collection of 156 of those strips, comprising the first three volumes as they appeared in Europe, spanning Esther's life from age 10 to 12.As The Guardian noted: Each page of Esther's Notebooks is self-contained--there's usually a neat punchline--but read them all, and you come to see that Sattouf has drawn a portrait of a generation: their hopes, dreams and cultural references; the way that their personalities, backgrounds--many of the children portrayed have parents who are immigrants--and preconceived ideas about sexuality begin to play out even before they've begun secondary","brand":"Smith College Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Book \/ Standard","offer_id":43248290267225,"sku":"026549170","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/2687\/2153\/files\/9780593316924.jpg?v=1776877708","url":"https:\/\/smith.bkstr.com\/products\/esther-s-notebooks-441514-1","provider":"Smith College Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
