Inside Out is the result of Nadia Shivack's attempt to overcome her eating disorder. The memoir was created in graphic novel form, making it equally disturbing and revealing.

"Chronicled on napkins, notebook paper, or whatever scrap was available, Nadia's story unfolds as she endures it. She refers to her eating disorder as 'Ed', draws it as a dragon, and details its hold on her life and sanity starting at age fourteen."

Inside Out will speak to victims of eating disorders, and well as family members and friends. The artwork often describes visually the pain and inner turmoil that can't be described with mere words. Read more at SchoollibraryJournal.com.
