Us

Us
By Curtis Wikland
Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2017. 112 pages. Graphic Novel

When Wiklund's wife told him she was starting a project to take a photo every day for a year, she invited him to join her by creating a sketch every day. By the end of the year, he was surprised to see how many of his sketches documented their life together. He compiled them into this collection documenting one year in their day-to-day life.

This is a charming little book with an upbeat tone that many will find relatable. Wiklund doesn't portray his relationship as perfect although it is sometimes idealistic. But the focus on positive moments is inspiring for others as they reflect on their own relationships and the moments in their lives that make day-to-day life special.
