These two books are a pair of graphic novels that I found to be fun reads. My two oldest daughters have recently expressed some interest in Greek mythology with the impending release of The Lightning Thief movie and a screening of Jason and the Argonauts. With their interest I realized I needed to do some brushing up on the stories.

The story of Demeter and Persephone is an intriguing one. The story explains in Greek lore the reason for the seasons and this book captures the legend in succinct and captivating ways.

Out From Boneville is the first in an epic series of graphic novels entitled Bone. I don’t know much about what the series is about strictly from the first entry but it is intriguing enough for me to read more. If you are a fan of graphic novels then both of these are worth picking up.
