by Tony Allan Dragons and firebirds, fairies and orcs - these are just a few of the residents of The Mythic Bestiary. A whole menagerie of make-believe beings from the earth, water, and air inhabit these stunningly written and eye-catching pages, from Japan's Yukki-onna, a beautiful but deadly spirit who appeared to stranded travelers, to the two-headed venomous snake Amphisbaena, which hailed from the imagination of the Greek poet Nicander. Many are hybrids such as the Quetzalcoatl, the Aztecs' gorgeous combination of serpent and bird; others, more monstrous, tested the mettle of ancient heroes. This guide gives not only a taxonomy of size, appearance, habitat, and powers, but also provides vivid descriptions of the cultures that produced them.

(W) Roland Laird, Taneshia Nash Laird (A) Elihu 'Adofo' Bey Still I Rise is a critically acclaimed work with an impressive scope: the entire history of Black America, told in an accessible graphic-novel form. Updated from its original version - which ended with the Million Man March - it now extends from the early days of colonial slavery right through to Barack Obama's groundbreaking presidential campaign. Compared by many to Art Spiegelman's Maus, Still I Rise is a breathtaking achievement that celebrates the collective African-American memory, imagination, and spirit.

by William Shakespeare & Various No Fear Shakespeare is a graphic novels series based on the translated texts of the plays found in 'No Fear Shakespeare.' The original No Fear series made Shakespeare's plays easier to read, but these dynamic visual adaptations are impossible to put down. Each book features an illustrated cast of characters, plot summaries, line-by-line translations of the original play, and illustrations that show the reader exactly what's happening in each scene, all of which makes the plot and characters even clearer than in the original No Fear Shakespeare books. Students can explore familial betrayals in Hamlet, Scottish dynastic struggles in Macbeth, or doomed love in Romeo & Juliet. Each title is illustrated in its own unique style, but all are distinctively offbeat, slightly funky, and appealing to teen readers. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
