One of my initial concerns was for the respect of the material, especially when we are talking about one of the most cherished books ever written. So far, I am having a blast re-reading a few classics and having that experience enhanced by graphic art or drawings, depicting the scenes in the book. I am new to the graphic novel category and am still getting my sea legs, so to speak, but I have discovered one of the best ways to acclimate myself is by reading familiar stories in the graphic novel format. I’m not going to review the plot of ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, but will instead offer you a review of the graphic novel version of the beloved classic. ![]() To Kill a Mockingbird: A Graphic Novel is a 2018 Harper publication. ![]() 5/31/2023 0 Comments Ann and serge golon![]() ![]() They also collaborated on the popular Angélique novel series set in the 17th century, with Golon providing historical research.
