Graphic Library: Graphic Lives series.
Illustrated by
Diego Aballay.
These graphic novels detail the lives of the titular historical figures, with emphasis on events that garnered each the most notoriety. The comic-book format makes the volumes feel more like stories than typical biographies, which may appeal to reluctant history readers. The art in both books is generic and busy but decently expressive. Contextual notes, discussion questions, and writing prompts are included. Reading list, timeline. Glos. Review covers these Graphic Library: Graphic Lives titles: Anne Frank and Leonardo da Vinci.
