Booktalk: Do you know about the killer underwear invasion? A woman died because of it. I heard it on Tik Tok. Now everyone is saying that wearing underwear is dangerous. So if you’re wearing underwear, you better be careful….Actually, what I just told you is fake news. It seems obvious that killer underwear is fake news…But there are a lot of other fake news out there and the real danger is that there are people who believe them. So how can you protect yourself from fake news? This funny graphic novel will tell you what fake news is, why people make up fake news, why we believe fake news and how to tell real news from fake news. And that is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth!

Excellent. Straightforward, quality news/media literacy presented in a humorous way. I may use this as part of my information literacy curriculum for 5th/6th grade. ( )
