Why read it?

1 author picked Science Comics as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I think this comic book is perfect for visual learners who are in middle-grade or read hi-low or ESL books. I found the illustrations to be modern and catchy. I think the copywriting is kid-friendly. I believe it’s a great book to learn about how sickness is spread and the wider implications of the Plague.

From Caroline's list on books for kids about the plague.
