I read through both books of Maus. In my experience, I have never really read a whole lot of graphic novels, and really this was only the second autobiographical one I've read. It was just such an interesting story and crazy how it's all true. I can't believe how lucky Art's dad was to survive that whole mess. It definitely felt more like the pictures were in there to just aid the words, the telling of the story, which was the most important part. I really enjoyed how the story phased in and out of the story and the current time of him actually making the comic. Being able to use mice and pigs to show who was Jewish was really cool, especially when some people took their pig faces off and showed they were actually mice. Anyway, I really liked Maus for its well written, and interesting, story.
