I'm glad it exists, as a (relatively) easily absorbed summary of the full 9/11 Commission Report. I found the art overly dense in places, though, and a little problematic in the way it set up racial differences between the hijackers and the victims. I'm not sure why nearly everyone who worked in the WTC, for instance, were white, suit-wearing professionals; that doesn't reflect the huge racial, ethnic, and job diversity on display in the 9/11 Memorial. This graphic novel is based on the final report provided on 9/11 by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States. This version is a fact-based and beautifully illustrated look at the events leading up to the attacks on 9-11, the attacks themselves, the U.s. response and the commission's recommendations for how to better prepare our country for future issues, as well as steps to take to minimize the possibilities of successful future attacks. I found this book to be an excellent resource for people of all ages, but particularly for students who might be adverse to reading a typical nonfiction book. The 911 Report: A Graphic Adaptation ( Sid Jacobson & Ernie Colon) NY: Castlebridge Enterprises: 2006 YA: Informational: 131 PG Summary: This novels explains how the terrorists plotted the attack on 9/11 and all the preparation prior to the attack. Osama Bin Laden's journey from business man to terrorist leader is explained. The ideas of the terrorist and all the training they did is shared as well. Critique: Very informative. The images area little harsh, this would be better suited for an older group of students. Activity (After): What is something new you learned from this book? I never read the original 9/11 report because it was so long. I tried, but it seemed boring to me. I've read so many books on September 11th, but none like this.I found this one and thought I'd give it a try. I'm glad I did. The organization was pretty good and easy to follow except for a few small portions. I learned facts that I previously hadn't learned. Every frame was interesting. I would recommend it to all. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
