Persepolis is a good way to break into the graphic novel genre. I really enjoy reading graphic memoirs and that is one of my favorites.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-21296101746239398982009-02-06T06:46:00.000-08:002009-02-06T06:46:00.000-08:00Kristie- I'm in Illinois and it is a difficult ar...Kristie- I'm in Illinois and it is a difficult area to find a teaching job where I live. I am subbing though and hoping that it will help me to find a job for the fall. Good luck with your job hunt!<BR/><BR/>Naida- I'll look forward to hearing what you pick if you get the chance to go to the library.<BR/><BR/>Ladytink- I'm glad to hear it and I'm really excited to start this new series :)<BR/><BR/>Michelle- I'm looking forward to reading it and learning more. I think it is important to read books about the Holocaust so that we don't forget.<BR/><BR/>Eva- I don't think that The Color Purple is YA to be honest with you. I think that they just put all of the classics together in the Young Adult section so it would be easier for them to find. I mean even War and Peace was in that section and that isn't YA. There are additional copies of the classics in the adult section but they aren't all together like they were downstairs.samantha.1020https://www.blogger.com/profile/04124614710493747821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-90010119763957999222009-02-06T02:30:00.000-08:002009-02-06T02:30:00.000-08:00Wow-I didn't realise The Colour Purple was conside...Wow-I didn't realise The Colour Purple was considered YA!

It definitely made me more interested in them and I've since read a few others - one of which I really enjoyed was Craig Thompson's Blankets.RealLifeReadinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06599475000760157001noreply@blogger.com
