School Trip by Jerry Craft

This is the 3rd book of a series, preceded by New Kid, and Class Act. This book was every bit enjoyable as the first two. The students at RAD are all attending a class trip to various locations,and Jordan and his friends are heading to Paris! There is a student-led snafu with the chaperones, so no adults are going where they expected.

I really enjoyed the ensemble focus of this book, we got to know so many characters better. I also appreciate the way Craft weaves in social issues and current events that effect the students’ lives without coming across preachy or beating the reader over the head with them.

The last thing that made me chuckle in this book was the nod to other popular graphic novel titles.

Thank you NetGalley for an e-ARC in exchange for review!
