A Canadian politician fictionalizes her first run for a city council position in Montreal in this stiff, dry, and dull graphic novel. I'm not sure what the target audience is. I doubt kids would find it interesting, but it seems written down to their level, making it too boring for adults. Maybe it's Politics for Dummies? ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
