Another good discussion at West Jordan today (5/12/16). Here are the books we discussed:

We had a good discussion at Draper, too. People brought books that they liked, new and old. Here they are:

The Nathan Hale books that I've read from the Hazardous Tales series have been fun and informative. And good for all ages. I'm not familiar with the Shakespeare graphic novels.

Do you read nonfiction graphic novels? If you do, what are your favorites? Any age level works. I know there are some Nathan Hale fans out there.

One of my new favorite sports books is Where Nobody Knows Your Name by John Feinstein. This covers minor league baseball with a focus on a handful of players, managers, and umpires as they try to make it to the majors. Another fave is The Vast Unknown by Broughton Coburn. Triumph, tragedy, and Cold War hijinks result from the first American expedition to summit Everest in 1963.
