A Bag of Marbles by Kris

3.0

Solid graphic novel for younger readers. Based on a memoir of a Holocaust survivor who fled Nazi rule as a child. I found the panels engaging and the book full of movement and emotion. At times the messy nature of the drawings made it difficult for me to identify characters. I wasn’t able to completely follow the action of the story. I liked best the moments of reflection by the speaker/protagonist, but these were few and far between given the fast-paced nature of the story.
