My 8-Year-Old Self and the Sophomore Slump


Overview

After completing the first epic issue of his comic book Space Dog, My 8-Year-Old Self is determined to create something even bigger and better. There's just one problem... He can't. None of his ideas feel good enough. None of his drawings come out right. As he battles the minions of the evil Megalomaniac, survives school drama, and plans top-secret Halloween candy missions, he faces his most intimidating enemy yet: creative block - also known as the dreaded Sophomore Slump. A humorous and heartfelt illustrated adventure for ages 8-12, this middle grade graphic novel celebrates creativity, imagination, resilience, and growth mindset. Perfect for artistic kids, introverts, young comic book fans, and anyone who has ever stared at a blank page and wondered, ""Now what?""

Author Information

Born and raised in Austin, Texas, Mike Ivy was an Art teacher for 25 years. Drawing has been his passion since early childhood. Teaching Art allowed him to continue growing and developing as an artist himself, inspired by the many artists he introduced to his students, especially Edward Gorey and Charles M. Schulz. He still lives in the Austin area along with his husband and two very spoiled dogs, and is at work continuing the adventures of My 8-Year-Old Self.
