About the Comic
13,000 infants are born to teen parents each year in Canada, and 700,000 in the United States.
Research shows that these parents are vulnerable to abortion because the challenges of adolescent pregnancy and parenting are often deployed by abortionists to push teens towards abortion.
LifeCanada and Voyage Comics have developed a high-quality 40-page comic book that addresses the consequences of teen pregnancy from the perspective of two regular teens who date in high school and become pregnant. Each chapter focuses on a different choice and how it impacts their lives and the life of the unborn child.

Such a loving look at choices for those in an unplanned pregnancy. My teenage granddaughter was a bit shocked after reading a couple pages and came to ask me if I was sure I had read the book through and if it was ok for her to continue. When I told her yes to both she finished the book and said she really liked the book but was a bit concerned at the beginning. Great book that holds a teenagers attention!!
I thought the messaging clear and poignant. My only hesitation is how it will be perceived by young people.
What makes this book stand out is how it lets the reader decide how the story ends for the two characters, Josh and Casey, by variantly exploring what life looks like after every choice (abortion, adoption, raising the child on their own). This comic handles each of those options with respect and sensitivity, I believe honors how kids would react themselves, and wonderfully brings the topic of teen pregnancy to a medium teens know better than anyone.
This is a wonderfully written, honest and compassionate book that will help teens understand and navigate the challenging issues surrounding an unplanned teen pregnancy. I recommend for church, youth group and school use. Well done!
