This is a sadly sweet tale of a foster child named Paloma. She has been a troubled foster child, who is being placed with their 15th family.  This is her last chance before a group home.  For 4 years nothing happens, but quiet loneliness with her foster mom. Her foster mom just wants her to not only make friends, but have someone what to be her friend.  It finally happens when a girl who takes the name of a turtle, creates a girl gang for misfits.  This story was very interesting.  It is quiet and has a bit of strength not normally felt in many graphic novels.  I have a feeling this series will delve into the life of each of the girls one by one, and this was a great first read.
