SUMMARY:TAKING ANOTHER LOOK: RETHINKING  HISTORICAL NARRATIVES
DESCRIPTION:DAVID F. WALKER’s Big Jim and the White Boy: An American Classic Reimagined\, illustrated by MARCUS KWAME ANDERSON\, is a graphic novel that proposes a radical retelling of Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. This modern update follows Jim\, an enslaved Black man searching for his kidnapped family alongside his sidekick\, Huckleberry Finn\, while highlighting a bond that transcends the gruesome racism of the Civil War era. In Lies My Teacher Told Me: A Graphic Adaptation\, NATE POWELL puts his talents to the service of James W. Loewen’s indispensable corrective to American history myths. Powell captures the irreverent spirit of Loewen’s text with eye-popping illustrations\, while text boxes and callouts ensure nothing is lost in translation. And in TIM WENDEL’s Rebel Falls\, it’s late summer of 1864 and a forgotten chapter in the history of the Civil War is playing out far from the front lines. Confederate agents gather in Niagara Falls to plan one last audacious maneuver to turn the tide of the war – and a young woman is enlisted by the Union to prevent two rebel spies from succeeding. \nBuy Big Jim and the White Boy: An American Classic Reimagined – Anderson \nBuy Lies My Teacher Told Me : A Graphic Adaptation – Powell \nBuy Big Jim and the White Boy: An American Classic Reimagined – Walker \nBuy Rebel Falls: A Novel  – Wendel=
