Publisher's Synopsis

An enchanting graphic novel, When I Was a Kid is a collection of black and white drawings and handwritten narratives that depict short stories from a kid's formative years growing up in Malaysia - stories of surviving school, siblings, and parents - when the world was indeed, seen as simply black and white. Dedicated to the forgotten child in every reader, these tales of imaginary heroes, lies adults like to tell children, and the dangerous mix of boredom with curiosity appeal to anyone who might long for a more innocent time.
