Michigan: On the Trail of a War Bride is based on the true story of a French-born Odette who married John Wojcik, a war soldier during the World War II. Their love story was not loved at first sight neither their married life that perfect. They faced a lot of problems: from where to live after they get married, immigrating, adjusting, homesick, and even of Odette’s plan to have a vacation back to France.

The story was narrated back and forth from July 2010 to the past. Aside from poignant sections, there are a lot of funny parts in this comic book, particularly where Julien, the author, and his wife Maud’s cousins were involved. Undoubtedly, readers will enjoy reading the life story of sassy Odette and her vivacious family in Michigan.
