A school policy becomes a reason to speak up

Olive’s sixth-grade excitement about new experiences and a class trip shifts when she learns that a school policy will keep some students from joining it. The graphic novel follows her decision to seek change, including a student council campaign that puts her in competition with close friends. That mix of civic action and friendship gives the story its central tension: Olive wants to make herself heard while holding on to relationships that matter to her. Family support and the question of how one person can make a difference are also part of the book’s focus.

A New York Times bestseller!

Act is the funny and honest follow-up to the middle school graphic novel sensations Click and Camp. Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier, Shannon Hale, and Victoria Jamieson.

How do you know when the person who can make the difference . . . is you?

Olive is excited to start sixth grade: new teachers, new experiences, and a field trip to the big city with her best buds!

But when Olive finds out that a school policy is keeping some kids from going on the trip, she decides to act. She's prepared to do whatever it takes to be heard--even if it means running against Trent and Sawyer, two of her closest friends, in the student council election. With intense campaign competition and emotions running high, can Olive make a big change and keep her friends?

New York Times bestselling author-illustrator Kayla Miller crafts a genuine and inspiring story about evolving friendships, supportive family, and finding out that you--yes, you--have the power to make a difference.
