520    STAND TALL.  BE LOUD.  GAME FACE ON.    This pitch perfect
       graphic memoir about courage and competition, friendship 
       and belonging is perfect for fans of Smile, New Kid, 
       Rollergirl, and Real Friends.    "A captivating middle-
       grade gem." - The New York Times Book Review    ★ "Funny,
       relatable, and genuine." - Kirkus Reviews, starred review 
       ★ "Captures every nuanced emotion." - School Library 
       Journal, starred review    ★ "Genuinely nail-biting." - 
       Publishers Weekly, starred review    ★ "Cringe-worthy in 
       the best possible way...inspiring and insightful." - Shelf
       Awareness, starred review    "Delightfully expressive...a 
       standout." - Booklist    When cheerleading tryouts are 
       announced, Christina and her best friend, Megan, literally
       jump at the chance to join the squad. As two of the only 
       kids of color in the school, they have always yearned to 
       fit in-and the middle school cheerleaders are popular and 
       accepted by everyone. But will the girls survive the 
       terrifying tryouts, with their whole grade watching? And 
       will their friendship withstand the pressures of 
       competition?    Hilarious and highly relatable, The Tryout
       by two-time Newbery Honoree Christina Soontornvat and 
       shining new talent Joanna Cacao will make you laugh, cry, 
       and cheer!    "The plot alone is enough to keep young 
       readers flipping the pages. (I held my breath when the 
       final roster of cheerleaders was announced.) But like all 
       good books about growing pains, this captivating middle-
       grade gem contains many moments that will resonate with 
       young and old alike." - The New York Times Book Review    
       ★ "This superlative graphic memoir is a funny, relatable,
       and genuine story of friendship and belonging. . . . The 
       jokes, daydreams, and quips are delightful without 
       overshadowing or diminishing the impact of {Christina's} 
       experiences with racism and exclusion. The attractive, 
       expressive illustrations feature clean lines and bright 
       colors. A funny, painfully honest look at a middle 
       schooler finding her way." - Kirkus Reviews, starred 
       review    ★ "Soontornvat's lived and emotional 
       experiences come through loud and clear....Cacao's manga-
       inspired artwork captures every nuanced emotion. . . . 
       Readers of this empowering graphic memoir will want to 
       invite Christina to sit at their table to share food, 
       stories, and the secrets to self-confidence." - School 
       Library Journal, starred review    ★ "Soontornvat's 
       denouement is genuinely nail-biting, and the girls' 
       earnest love for cheerleading is infectious, despite their
       experiences with outward prejudice. Via emotive close-ups,
       Cacao confidently conveys the girls' persistence, fluidly 
       injecting their athletic pursuits with lively energy using
       bright color palettes and varied character design." - 
       Publishers Weekly, starred review    ★ "Soontornvat's 
       memoir is cringe-worthy in the best possible way. . . . 
       brought to life with gorgeous illustration from self-
       taught comic artist Joanna Cacao. . . . The Tryout is an 
       inspiring and insightful graphic memoir for anyone who 
       simply wants to fit in." - Shelf Awareness, starred review
       "The art is delightfully expressive, and the characters' 
       personalities shine in each panel. A standout addition to 
       any graphic autobiography collection." - Booklist    "The 
       Tryout beautifully captures the struggles and pressures of
       wanting to fit in. As a fellow Thai-American, Christina 
       brought a tear to my eye." - Dan Santat, New York Times 
       bestselling creator of The Aquanaut
