My Big Sister Megan #1

Description

My Big Sister Megan is meant to act as a jumping-off point for in-depth discussion between people of all ages, especially children. Starting the conversation about what mental illness is and how it affects the individual as well as the family can be difficult. However, if given access to the right resources it is possible. Once we can have open dialogue, we have the opportunity to end the stigma surrounding mental illness. Knowledge helps acceptance become reality. Ideal for ages 7 and older.

My Big Sister Megan is a comic book about a young girl named Katie whose teenager sister Megan is beginning to show the symptoms of bipolar disorder. The story is told through Katie”s eyes, and we see her and her family come to terms with the diagnosis and how they must work together and support each other.
