Hold
Randy Ribay, illus. by Zeke Peña (Kokila)
Carrying an overflowing armload becomes a full-fledged activity in Ribay and Peña’s relatable family portrait. Asked to hold a drinking cup while heading out the door, a child realizes that they want to haul everything solo, including the family cat, an airborne plane, and a passerby’s infant. But when toting a teetering pile makes it impossible to do much else, it leads to another form of holding—hugging Daddy—all portrayed with an indie comics sense of style.
