Exclusive Comics Excerpt: ‘Chiggers’



The onset of summer means one thing for Abby: summer camp outside Asheville, North Carolina. It's the same camp she's always gone to, but this year her bunkmate is Shasta — who's fun, who's funny, and who harbors some secrets that will make the summer a difficult one.

Today on the Comics Page, we're proud to present an excerpt from Chiggers, a new all-ages graphic novel by cartoonist Hope Larson. A beautifully written tale of adolescent friendship and its complications, Chiggers is out in June from Simon & Schuster.
