Event Details

Graphic Novels aren't just for Teens and Kids. Join our brand new graphic novel book club and experience this emerging art form that blends complex storytelling with vivid artwork. The Club will meet on a Tuesday of each month via Zoom. For this month we are reading: [Haytham](https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12846903) Haytham al-Aswad is a young boy like any other, growing up in the Syrian town of Deera: he plays soccer, hangs out with his friends, and is studying for an upcoming test. But when the revolution breaks out and people take to the streets to protest the brutal regime of Bashar al-Assad, Haytham suddenly goes from kicking the ball to dodging bullets. His activist father is forced into exile, and the rest of the family eventually join him in France, where Haytham's new life as a refugee brings its own set of challenges.
