Celebrity baker, cookbook author, mental health advocate, and Great British Bake Off star Kim, and fan—favorite artist Alti, the team behind the acclaimed graphic novel Turtle Bread, reunite with Quiet, a thought—provoking story that explores social anxiety, selective mutism, and bullying — set in a near—future where schools use robot companions to support students’ mental health.
Mary hasn’t spoken a word at school in years due to selective mutism. She’s isolated, misunderstood, and targeted by relentless bullies. When she’s assigned a SereniBot — a mental health support robot — she’s mortified. The last thing she wants is more attention. But Mary soon discovers the robot can do more than just help her cope, it can help her fight back. What starts as clever pranks on her bullies turns into a series of misadventures that spiral out of control. As the line between standing up for herself and becoming a bully starts to blur, Mary begins to ask a difficult question: in trying to take back control, has she become the very thing she feared? As Mary questions her choices, Quiet becomes a deeper story about power, empathy, and what it really means to be heard.
Combining emotional insight with a hint of sci-fi, Quiet, featuring spot color by Firmansyah, speaks to anyone who’s ever felt voiceless, misunderstood, or underestimated. It’s a reminder that courage doesn’t always roar — and sometimes, the quietest voices carry the most important truths.
Now, let's take a look inside:
