Reading faces menacing villains in this day and age. But in the fight to engage students against MySpace and Grand Theft Auto, one genre is fighting back...GRAPHIC NOVELS!!! I teach literacy to a fantastic group of 24 students in the Bronx. They are part of an incredibly diverse community coming from the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Bangladesh, Mexico, and Albania. It is also a poverty-stricken community and my students face daunting challenges everyday, including gang violence, hunger, and inadequate housing and health care. Most of my students qualify for free or reduced price lunch and many are English language learners.
