Wow! First edition
David Perez
It's the South Bronx of the 1960s, a neighborhood teetering on change. The young Puerto Rican boy David Pérez is living in the Millbrook housing projects, about to be transferred to St. Luke's Elementary School, where he's already attended catechism and asked if God "popped out of nowhere." So begins this delightful "memoirito," a novella-like tale that follows David trying his best to be "cool" in a neighborhood where being the smartest guy in school isn't something to brag about.
The first in a series, Wow! also features illustrations by internationally acclaimed comic book artist George Pérez, David's brother and one of several memorable characters in Wow!
