Sunny Rolls the Dice: 02/18/21

Sunny Rolls the Dice

Sunny Rolls the Dice by Jennifer L. Holm and Matthew Holm is the third of the Sunny graphic novels. This novel, inspired by the author's childhood, also explains Babymouse's active imagination.

In this novel, Sunny discovers Dungeons & Dragons. She joins a party of two boys she's friends with in class. Meanwhile the girls she's been friends with for years have started discovering boys, make up, and fashion. While she wants to be groovy she is utterly baffled by the allure of these things her friends are now so interested in.

Sunny Rolls the Dice is the closest this series comes to being a Babymouse recast with humans, illustrated in full color, and set in the late 1970s. The back of book includes photographs of the author playing D&D.
