Strange fruit : more uncelebrated narratives from Black history
A collection of stories from early African American history that represent the oddity of success in the face of great adversity. Each of the eight illustrated chapters chronicles an uncelebrated African American hero or event. Joel Christian Gill offers historical and cultural commentary on heroes whose stories are not often found in history books, such as Cathay Williams, the only known female buffalo soldier, and Eugene Bullard, a fighter pilot who flew for France during World War II.

Children’s and Young Adult Comics by Gwen Athene Tarbox (review)
The work reads as a spiritual successor to Tarbox’s 2017 anthology with co-editor Michelle Abate, Graphic Novels for Children and Young Adults: A Collection of Critical Essays (University Press of Mississippi), and, in many ways, acts as a primer more attenuated to the children’s literature scholar looking to dip a toe into the comics studies pool as opposed to vice versa. The strengths of this slender volume—it’s a tight 154 pages before the glossary—reside in its ability to quickly traverse a densely-packed scholarly field and body of literature with solid and consistent close reading and an absolutely crucial fourth chapter on critical uses and case studies that take dense theory and places it into a readable and comprehensible format. [...]it’s a short volume that does the work of many considerably longer volumes, and, as such, it’s a fine introduction for someone who would like to begin the journey into comic studies for the YACL community.

Button pusher
\"Tyler's brain is different. Unlike his friends, he has a hard time paying attention in class. He acts out in goofy, over-the-top ways. Sometimes, he even does dangerous things--like cut up a bus seat with a pocketknife or hang out of an attic window. To the adults in his life, Tyler seems like a troublemaker. But he knows that he's not. Tyler is curious and creative. He's the best artist in his grade, and when he can focus, he gets great grades. He doesn't want to cause trouble, but sometimes he just feels like he can't control himself.\"-- Publisher's webpage.

Adapting the Rhetoric of Authentication of Riad Sattouf’s La Vie secrète des jeunes
The comic book series La Vie secrète des jeunes is a sardonic account of French young people’s behaviours witnessed from the voyeuristic viewpoint of its author-illustrator, Riad Sattouf. Despite its caricatural and non-photorealistic visual style, the work conveys a strong sense of authenticity, mixing truth claims borrowed from established non-fiction traditions (journalism, autobiography and documentary). It is also a rare example of a non-fiction comic turned into live action. This article considers the comic and its TV adaptation, and discusses film’s ability to adapt an account of truth rooted in comics ontology. The article first provides a theoretical structure that details the intricacy of repeating the truth from comic to film. Second, it highlights the way in which the comic develops its authenticity by constantly reaffirming Sattouf’s presence and subjectivity. The article aims to show that the adaptation anonymises this viewpoint in order to re-construct the authenticity of its reality.

Graphic Novels and School Libraries
School libraries serving children and teenagers today should be committed to collecting graphic novels to the extent that their budgets allow. However, the term \"graphic novel\" is enough to make some librarians--not to mention administrators and parents--pause. Graphic novels are simply book-length comics. They can be works of fiction or nonfiction, and their content parallels the wide range of literature that librarians already collect in other forms, including biographies, poetry, and novels. The term \"graphic\" in \"graphic novel\" means highly visual. It does not mean mature or violent content. This article suggests ideas on collecting, cataloging, and using graphic novels in school libraries.
