Lumberjanes: Beware the kitten holy
Summary:
Five friends want to enjoy summer at a girls’ scout camp, but their plans are constantly thwarted by three-eyed foxes, water monsters, and wild scouts from the boys’ camp. Fortunately, they have no problem kicking ass and even winning an arm wrestling match against a living statue. And if they’re lucky, they won’t even piss off their tattooed leader. The Girl Scouts have become a cult favorite for modern readers, and you will love them if you’ve outgrown Raina Telgemeier’s realistic stories or the adventures of blue-haired Hilda, with whom Jo, April, Mal, Molly, and Ripley have a lot in common—they promote values such as friendship, tolerance, nature conservation, and courage in a wacky way.

Comment:
This children’s comic book about courage and the power of female friendship takes readers on a thrilling and humorous journey through the lives of teenage girls, encouraging them to develop their playfulness, strength, and desire for adventure despite societal pressure, which often views these traits as masculine and unsuitable for girls. The story gently encourages children to play without distinction and not to succumb to the stereotypical categorization of games and activities as “girly” or “boyish.”
