We'll start with an anticipation guide and a couple of video clips to introduce us to the overarching stories, take some notes about the novel and about graphic novels in general, and do some work on identifying and labeling terms and concepts related to graphic novels, so that you'll be able to read this one successfully.
(Note: The notes and everything you'll need are in the PPT below. The videos are too large to upload, but you can find them on YouTube easily - ABC Book Trailer and ABC Interview with Gene Yang.)
