Aya - Graphic Novel by Marguerite Abouet

Been busy the last several months finishing my latest book and seeing it published. Now, am trying to catch up on my kid's lit list. I just purchased "AYA" by Marguerite Abouet, illustrated by Clement Oubrerie at Politics and Prose, a local DC bookstore and institution. It's a nearly 100 page graphic novel about a young African girl coming of age. Has any read it yet or its sequel - Aya of Yop City? Enjoy!
