Graphic Novels aren't relegated to the West. Japan has a rich culture of writing graphic novels that are called Manga. Manga read from right to left and take place over just as much variety of setting as western graphic novels can. Below is a collection of Manga that we have in our collection here at Bradley.
Wandering Son by Takako Shimura
The fifth grade. The threshold to puberty, and the beginning of the end of childhood innocence. Shuichi Nitori and his new friend Yoshino Takatsuki have happy homes, loving families, and are well-liked by their classmates. But they share a secret that further complicates a time of life that is awkward for anyone: Shuichi is a boy who wants to be a girl, and Yoshino is a girl who wants to be a boy.
