It was a great coming of age book filled with conflict, first love, and faith. I have never read a graphic novel and I discovered the pictures themselves told more of a story than the text. Thompson’s work was brilliant and full of rich details

The outlawing and burning of books is one great way that Bradbury shows what can happen if we allow ourselves to trivialize knowledge.
