Lauren R. Weinstein is a cartoonist and teacher.

Her new book Girl Stories came out April 18th.

Advance Praise for Girl Stories

"Girl Stories feels real, approachable, and honest in the way that the best art and writing should; it perfectly captures those awkward moments when the potential for manipulating other people's feelings is first discovered, and all of the moral questions implied therein. It's also really funny."

--Chris Ware, author of Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth, and The ACME Novelty Library

"These are not only great girl stories, but also great human stories. Lauren perfectly and hilariously captures both the poignancy and folly of that awkward age when we sit perched on the cusp of adolescence. She does this with genuine warmth, sharp wit, and unaffected storytelling."

--Ivan Brunetti, editor ofAn Anthology of Graphic Fiction, Cartoons, & True Stories, and author of Schizo
