I Survived the Shark Attacks of 1916 (Graphic Novel #2)
Chet Roscow is finally feeling at home in Elm Hills, New Jersey. He has a job with his uncle Jerry at the local diner, three great friends, and the perfect summertime destination: cool, refreshing Matawan Creek.
But Chet's summer is interrupted by shocking news. A great white shark has been attacking swimmers along the Jersey shore, not far from Elm Hills. Everyone in town is talking about it. So when Chet sees something in the creek, he's sure it's his imagination... until he comes face-to-face with a bloodthirsty shark!
Lauren Tarshis's New York Times bestselling I Survived series takes on vivid new life in full-color graphic novel editions. Perfect for readers who prefer the graphic novel format, or for existing fans of the I Survived chapter book series, these graphic novels combine historical facts with high-action storytelling that's sure to keep any reader turning the pages.
Historical fiction is a popular genre for a variety of ages. Graphic novels appeal to visual learners and reluctant readers, as well as those who just love the comic book look. Combine the two and you have this series based on true events and presented in a visual format for the reader. Kids will read them again and again as they glean something new each time from the illustrations. In the back is a section on the actual event, including books for additional reading. These are a cool addition to a social studies or history course, a unit study, or a home/school library. I liked the size of the series too – not too small or too big. ~Sara
