Maus: A Survivor's Tale. My Father Bleeds History by Art Spiegelman

4.0

This is a true book about the Holocuast in graphic novel form. It is very interesting. I was reading it so see if it was appropriate to use in a 9th grade reading class. My daughter first read this in a college class and told me about it. The story is true and the animation makes it easier to keep track of the characters and which "side" they are on, but I think that the tragic story loses some of its impact in cartoon form. Still, I do understand why the author chose this format and it is both an intersting and important book about a dreadful time.
