Progress: 2/30 - #18. read 30 texts that will aid in my teaching

Geoff and I picked this up at a yard sale yesterday. At just over 100 pages, it's a short but visually and emotionally staggering read.

"Waltz with Bashir: A Lebanon War Story", an adaptation of the 2008 animated film, is a graphic text rendition of the author's efforts to recollect his forgotten war memories during his time spent as an Israeli soldier in the Sabra and Shatila massacre in 1982.

I always think that graphic texts, in the right hands, make for a potentially rich analysis - especially insomuch as the biography unit will have students speak to the form of the text as a vehicle to help articulate the author's purpose.
