Sunny

Set in a near-future Japan, Sunny is a poignant, quiet series from Scholastic about a group of children living at a home for troubled youth. Created by acclaimed manga artist Taiyo Matsumoto, the story centers on the kids' daily lives, their friendships, and their dreams of escape, often through the lens of a broken-down car they pretend to drive. Though only three issues long, this heartfelt series is celebrated for its gentle, humanistic storytelling and Matsumoto's distinctive, expressive artwork.
