Category Description for I Survived
Historical fiction is a popular genre for a variety of ages. Graphic novels appeal to visual learners and reluctant readers, as well as those who just love the comic book look. Combine the two and you have this series based on true events and presented in a visual format for the reader. Kids will read them again and again as they glean something new each time from the illustrations. In the back is a section on the actual event, including books for additional reading. These are a cool addition to a social studies or history course, a unit study, or a home/school library. I liked the size of the series too – not too small or too big. ~Sara
