Oh Brother

'Nuanced, empathetic, and beautifully unique. It’s rare to see real-life experiences of autism reflected with such honesty, care and visual brilliance. Gina Chadderton’s storytelling is rich in detail, compassion and truth. Comics like this have the power to change how the world understands the many different ways autism can be experienced.' Abigail Balfe author of A Different Sort of Normal

New house.

New school.

New best friend?

For a nervous kid who doesn’t like change, it’s a lot to deal with.

And that’s before Gina’s brother, Rob, gets involved.

From stealing Gina’s treats to climbing on the neighbours’ garage roof, Rob has a knack for causing chaos. Gina knows he doesn’t mean it, but worries that his quirks might scare off her new friend, Callie. Then again, maybe Gina’s own quirks are enough to drive Callie away!

This heartfelt and irresistible graphic memoir debut captures the complicated feelings that come from growing up with an autistic sibling who requires substantial support. It’s a story about friendship, family, disability, and the power of Vegemite toast.
