Kayla reviews THE GREAT GATSBY: A GRAPHIC NOVEL INTERPRETATION

Rating: 5 out of 5.

I received a digital copy of this novel from #netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I taught Gatsby to 11th graders for years, and some kids loved it but many were thrown off by the imagery and figurative language. This graphic novel would be an excellent teaching tool to reach those struggling readers.

I love that the artist uses a creative approach to the story in that not every panel is a literal depiction of scenes from the book. The imagery she utilizes reinforces the themes of the original work in a way that is both refreshing and beautiful.
