Great Idea in the Day of the Graphic Novel!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I ordered a set of American History graphic novels for my classroom but was thrilled to see an example for sale in the book store. I read it and it is quite good. It allows my ESOL students to access the material taught in Social Studies while providing a lot of information in pictures so the students can get a better idea of what the situation was about. I felt the dialogue in the book had more to do with today than the way people talked in Mongomery, Alabama in the 1950s, but it enables the material to be more comprehensible to students. I'm glad I bought a classroom set - a variety of titles.
