From acclaimed writer and comic artist Wahab Algarmi comes a bittersweet middle grade graphic novel about friendships, volleyball, and the heartbreak of middle school.

Zack and Zander have been best friends forever—they do everything together. From morning carpools, to family dinners, to class projects, the pair have always been practically inseparable. It’s Zack and Zander versus the world.

But as their school year progresses, the duo’s differences start to become more obvious. It’s not long before they’re starting to disagree on everything -- from what video games to play to what to do during their lunch period to even how much time they should be spending together. A friendship that used to be as easy as breathing now feels like it’s suffocating them both.

But when Zander finally convinces Zack to join the volleyball team, their relationship hits a breaking point. Can the duo set their differences aside and find a way to still hang? Or has their friendship reached its breaking point?

A nuanced look at growing up and growing apart, Breaking Point is a heartfelt read for any young sports fan, reluctant reader, or middle schooler navigating the occasional heartbreak of friendship.
