Chester Comix brings history to reluctant readers! In this full-color graphic novel you will find exciting biographies of Jackie Robinson, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., and Thurgood Marshall. And you will see how each person is shaped by their times — so you don’t just learn about Rosa’s life but also see other women who protested racial segregation on public buses.
A timeline across every page helps students place people and events in context. Each book can be a literacy tool (the titles across the top of each page are questions, which make great writing prompts for students) or a research source (each book has an index).
