Jo & Rus

"A pure friendship story shines a beacon for kids going through difficult times."  - Kirkus Reviews

At first, Jo and Rus don’t realize how much they have in common - she’s a middle schooler who’s constantly bullied and he’s a high schooler in a rock band. But when a mysterious one-eyed cat brings the two of them together, they quickly learn they’re both outcasts trying to figure out what they really want from life in a world where the odds are stacked against them. It’s only by becoming friends they discover who they are, who they want to be and what it takes for every one of us to find our own happiness! Cartoonist Audra Winslow presents an all-new story about rolling with the punches when life doesn’t go your way and when you have to stand your ground, no matter the cost.
