Book Review: Graphic Novels by David Alexander Robertson

I can't remember how I found out about David Alexander Robertson, through the rabbit hole of the internet at work one day. Robertson is of Cree heritage, and the author of many graphic novels portraying Aboriginal history and present day issues.











Betty: The Helen Betty Osborne Story

By David Alexander Robertson and Scott B. Henderson

2015



A story about a murdered indigenous women, this is an emotional read with not a happy ending.













Sugar Falls: A Residential School Story

By David Alexander Robertson and Scott B. Henderson

2012



This poignant story about a residential school experience, ultimately ends with strength and hope.















7 Generations

By David Alexander Robertson and Scott B. Henderson

2012



Collecting four stories in one volume, this novel traces a family from 1800 to present day, through tragedy and bravery and strength.













All of these graphic novels were great reads and I recommend them to everyone. I opened my mind and learned. I sure hope Robertson's works find themselves in schools across Canada!

B: Start - Kyle Larson, Ryan Blaney Bench - Chase Elliott, Clint Bowyer Reasons -I wanted to go with Larson and Elliott, but things worked out okay overall though. I can save my Elliott start from Homestead now. And use Blaney here instead. I think Elliott has a better car, but I won't risk it with him starting so deep in the field. Kurt Busch is the best start-save option in the field for Sunday's race. I also like Ricky Stenhouse Jr as a deep sleeper, too. I also think Jamie Mac will better than he has shown so far this weekend. C: Start - Erik Jones Bench - Ty Dillon Reasons - Heading into the playoffs, I thought that Texas was the place for E...
