Abstract

In the fall of 2011, my fellow classmates and I decided to create a graphic novel anthology of classic literature as an encouragement for young children to read great, time-tested writing (I decided on Treasure Island). The following is my continued experience on this project, the project’s outcomes and how this project has affected me as an artist, group member and visual communicator.
