The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Graphic Novel)
Margaret C. Hall - 2006
Written by the author sometimes called "the Lincoln of literature," The Adventures of Tom Sawyer was surprisingly neither a critical nor a financial success when it was first published in 1876. It was Mark Twain's first novel. However, since then Tom Sawyer has become his most popular work, enjoying dramatic, film, and even Broadway musical interpretations.

Nevermore (Classical Eye)
Dan WhiteheadAlice Duke - 2007
His stories' macabre blend of doomed romanticism, gothic melodrama and ghoulish destiny has made him one of crime fiction's greatest authors. Famous for his poems and short stories Poe, who was born in Boston in 1809, laid the foundations for the modern detective story and psychological thriller.Nevermore brings Poe to a new audience, showcasing some of his most memorable stories, here Poe's short stories are re-imagined and revived in this vibrant graphic novel anthology, where the cream of modern comics creators are let loose in the playground of Poe's limitless imagination.From the despair of love lost in The Raven, to the psychological terror of The Tell Tale Heart and the fantastical detective work of The Murders In The Rue Morgue, beloved classics are brought to live with renewed vigour."These versions of Poe's best-loved and less familiar tales are destined to capture the imagination of a generation new to the master of terror, as well as delight long time admirers of Poe." - Roger Corman
Hawthorne's the Scarlet Letter
Adam Sexton - 2009
A four-page essay at the beginning ties the novel and manga together; the rest of the book is taken up with the manga novel itself. So, there should be strong carryover between those people who are manga readers and those teachers/students who want a new and unique way to read the plays. Our "The Scarlet Letter" manga is true to the original context of the play--we don't take Hester and Pearl and set them in a setting/time that's not relevant to Hawthorne's original and intended time/setting. You could say that ours is "true" to the novel.

Khaled Hosseini: "A Thousand Splendid Suns"
Ayse Gökce - 2011
Today every school in Germany offers English as school subject, even the primary schools. Consequently it must be put great emphasis on teaching it accurately by taking into consideration any aspect of English language acquisition when learning it, for example the acquisition of a distinctive vocabulary, the ability to use grammar rules correctly, the ability to spell correctly, the ability to understand what is been said when native speakers talk in English which we call listening comprehension. Another very important part of learning English as a foreign language is undisputedly reading comprehension. The ability to read out correctly, to understand what is been read and to be able to work with a text effectively is not only a competence that should be concentrated on in the foreign language but also in the mother tongue. The PISA Study is a perfect proof of this which will be mentioned later on. In this paper I will try to accentuate the importance and significance of reading in the English class. In order to illustrate this I will introduce the novel A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, an American author and doctor with Afghan origins, and use it for the elaboration of the importance of reading activities in the English class. Initially I will focus on the didactic analysis which includes the reference to the syllabus. The syllabus is of course the signpost in terms of guidelines when planning the lessons, choosing age-appropriate media and methods. What role does reading play in this context? What is said in the syllabus when it come
