Cartooning from Life: A Graphic Guide to Using Non-Fiction Comics in Education

Maxwell Zawatsky is a cartoonist and educator whose work focuses on the people, places, and experiences around him (mainly his wife, Raine). His daily diary comic, The Blob Chronicles, showcases the mundane, everyday moments that we all overlook, asking us to take a moment and enjoy the small things. His thesis, Cartooning from Life: A Graphic Guide to Using Non-Fiction Comics in Education, explores how we can use non-fiction comics as a way to critically engage with our own lives, those around us, and the world at large.
