Book Description
for Your Life in Comics by Tyler Page and Bill Zimmerman
From the Publisher
Perfect for plane, train or bus, or just at the kitchen table; boys can spend hours using their creativity, along with being able to express themselves in ways they might not have done in the past.
Rather than provide the story, this interactive book for guys allows them to decide what happens by using words and drawings of their creation. Some of the activities include completed comics where boys can dictate what happens through dialogue. Others encourage them to draw comic strips. Freestyle activities let guys personalize the book in fun ways.
Based on Free Spirit favorite 100 Things Guys Need to Know, this do-it-yourself comic book will get boys thinking about important topics in their lives, including family, friends, school, health, and the future.
Features of the book include:
High-interest graphic-novel-style illustrations
Fun writing and drawing activities that can engage for hours
Exercises and prompts that let guys explore thoughts and attitudes
Chronicling of tween years that can become a treasured keepsake
Web extensions pointing the way to fun, interactive online resources
