Strong character development: Yes

I liked the stylized artwork, but some of the dialogue sounded unnatural. I've also discovered I don't like racquetball lol. 

Blair was way too nice; some people would've told Rosie the old and the new. The resolution with the dad was very light for the amount of overbearing and critical he was. But I think Rosie's emotional capacity was spot-on; middle schoolers are dealing with big feelings which are hard to express, sometimes.
