Synopsis
A full college class on creating comics... in a graphic novel! Learn the secrets of the trade but also... the secrets of the students who make quite a cast of characters. Can the professors keep up?

Brandon Blythe - Children's Literature
The Bristol Board Jungle is a comic book about comics. The book presents a classroom of eleven students and two teachers. It deals with the lessons taught by the teachers, as well as the lessons that the students share with the teachers. This, in many ways, is a great book for aspiring artists. It is an educational book, teaching the reader the tools of the comic art trade. Although, in chapter five, the authors say that relatively few artists who want to be comic book artists ever achieve their goals. While probably true, and may dampen some reader's hopes and dreams, others may aspire to become one of the select few that succeed. 2004, NBM Publishing, Ages 9 to 14.
