Author-illustrator Vincent X. Kirschs picture book From Archie to Zack is an unapologetic celebration of friendship and first crushes. Archie loves Zack! Zack loves Archie! Everyone said it was so. But Archie hasnt told Zack yet. And Zack hasnt told Archie. They spend just about every minute together: walking to and from school, doing science and art projects, practicing for marching band, learning to ride bikes, and so much more. Over the course of a few months, Archie tries to write a letter to Zack to tell him how he feelsfrom A to Z. None of his drafts sound quite right, so he hides them all away. One by one, Archies friends (Zelda, Zinnia, and Zuzella) find the letters . . . but they know exactly whom theyre meant for. This picture book from Vincent X. Kirsch celebrates young, queer love in a whimsical, kid-friendly way. A pure and perfect capture of first love. School Library Journal (Starred Review)
