Description

In kindergarten, Jarrett Krosoczka’s teacher asks him to attract his circle of relatives, with a mommy and a daddy. But Jarrett’s circle of relatives is a lot more complicated than that. His mom is an addict, out and in of rehab, and out and in of Jarrett’s life. His father is a mystery — Jarrett doesn’t know where to find him, or even what his name is. Jarrett lives with his grandparents — two very loud, very loving, very opinionated people who had thought they were through with raising children until Jarrett came along.

Jarrett goes through his childhood trying to make his non-normal life as normal as conceivable, finding a way to express himself through drawing while so little is being said to him about what is going on. Only as a youngster can Jarrett start to piece together the truth of his circle of relatives, reckoning with his mother and tracking down his father.

Hey, Kiddo is a profoundly important memoir about growing up in a circle of relatives grappling with addiction, and finding the art that helps you live on.
