Jerry Craft's 2019 Coretta Scott King and Newbery Medal-winning novel New Kid is a thought-provoking, aesthetically pleasing study in comparison-and-contrast between protagonist Jordan Bank's home life in his neighborhood (Washington Heights, near the George Washington Bridge in New York City) and his school life where he is a new 7th grader (Riverdale Academy, an elite and exclusive prep school) that benefits from the medium: graphic literature.
