To Kill a Mockingbird: The stunning graphic novel adaptation

My nine year old daughter has just gotten into graphic novels, when I spotted this. I wasn't sure if some of you subject matter would be particularly suitable for her, but she lapped this up in no time at all and showed great maturity and understanding of some hard hitting themes. The artwork itself is gorgeous throughout and totally nails the the almost dreamy naivety of the memories of our beloved narrator, Scout. This is one book that I know will take pride of place on my daughter's shelf.

Bought this for my 10-year old for who English is their third language (yes, I know I'm showing off a bit). She enjoyed it so much she wants to read the proper book and watch the film (in that order). If you're thinking that To Kill a Mocking Bird has themes inappropriate for a 10 year old, then you may be wrong. We found suitable ways to explain everything in an age-suitable way. Also, there is no age limit for emphasizing to someone that racism = bad.

I love this. Not only does it stay faithful to the book, it also captures the wonderful mood created by the film. That is a remarkable achievement and makes this a book that will appeal to every fan of th story.

I do love a graphic novel. This is a beautifully illustrated version of the great classic. I would never have sat and read the original but this version is so captivating and well-paced that it had to be read in one sitting.

Bought as a gift loved it beautifully illustrated

To kill a mockingbird is a classic book and has won awards and such. This graphic novel was written well and is a must have for any fans of harper lee. It’s well written and designed and a great way to catch up on a classic novel tuned to a graphic novel

This book is great if anyone especially kids get bogged down and don’t want to read page after page of just writing it is written like a comic strip but doesn’t take away from the story, also great for visual learners.

Not a big graphic novel fan. I loved everything about this one of the all time greats what a treat to read in this format read in one sitting absolutely brilliant adaption.

"It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what" (pg. 125). I really appreciate this story. It is one of my favorites and I try to read it once a year. I just saw it on stage in October. All the obvious criticisms aside, I find the telling of it from Scout's sweet perspective to be a powerful way to tell the story. I chuckled often throughout. Unlike some graphic novels this one isn't a retelling or modernization, it stays true to the story but breaks it up into panels and provides illustrations to aid in the storytelling. It is well done. A word on the illustrations: they are fantastic. There are some pages with no words and because the illustrations are so fantastic no words are needed. If you like TKAM I think you will appreciate this version. If you've wanted to be introduced to the material this would be a nice way to start. A good addition to a classroom library.

Nice read

Una adaptación muy fiel a la novela original; con un dibujo que plasma con detalle la época, y que acompaña perfectamente la historia que se cuenta.

Wurde auf Veranlassung der Schule meiner Tochter gekauft. Sie hat es für den Unterricht benötigt und für gut befunden.
