[ISLMA-Share] Graphic novel suggestion needed

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

March is AMAZING and would pair well with a few novels. There's also three volumes.

Yummy: The last days of a Southside Shorty by Greg Neri.  It's based on the death of an 11-year old Chicago boy who was killed by members of his own gang.  Maybe a little too real as a class read, but been very popular with both Junior High and High School students for me.

Trinity: A Graphic History of the First Atomic Bomb by Jonathan Fetter-Vorm
The Silence of Our Friends by Mark Long, Jim Demonakos, Nate Powell (more fiction, but drawn from one of the author's childhood during the Civil Rights Era)

Hello,
In seventh grade our students read Drowned City.  Our eighth grade teachers would like a similar book that is more nonfiction based.  Any suggestions?
