Nine of One

In this graphic novel that helps teens make sense of world events, nine fictional high school students reflect the variety of feelings about the events of September 11. Set during the confusion following the terrorist attacks, the story begins when a history teacher assigns his students to write a report on the incident based on an interview with someone who has a different viewpoint from their own. As they fan out into the community and encounter people of diverse backgrounds, opinions, and prejudices, the teens quickly realize that the story cannot be reduced to simple themes like good versus evil or us versus them.
