What Happened to You?
Hva skjedde egentlig med deg?
Janne isn’t like the rest of her family. That’s what Grandma says. The others are slim, while Janne is big. What happened to her?
Grandma isn’t the only one who comments on Janne’s appearance. People at school do, too. Janne is comfort eating and cutting herself off from others, but suddenly her parents suggest a solution to the problem: For every kilo she looses, she’ll get 100 kroner. Janne goes along with the agreement and slowly but surely, she gets smaller. But does she get any happier? And does it solve her real problems?
What Happened to You? is a powerful, brave and thought-provoking graphic novel about friendship, being an outsider and living with eating disorders. Jenny Jordahl delivers an important and absorbing story for children and young people aged 9 and older.
