Gr. 6-up. Here's a collection that will have graphic novel fans and die-hard Bradbury readers scrambling for the shelves. Some of the best artists in the business have adapted the author's short stories for the comics page. Each adaptation is accompanied by a preface by Bradbury, offering insight into the inspiration for the story, and each artist is paired with a story that suits his artwork perfectly. Among the best are "Come into My Cellar," from Dave Gibbons (of Watchmen fame), a Tales from the Crypt -like story of invaders from outer space, complete with a cliff-hanger ending and retro artwork, and "The Golden Apples of the Sun," adapted by P. Craig Russell (Sandman), an interstellar exploration of the uninhabitable star. A wonderful showcase of graphic novel artists and a great introduction for readers new to Bradbury's dark fantasy world. -Carlos Orellana<br><br><b>Author:</b> Ray Bradbury<br><b>Publisher:</b> iBooks<br><b>Published:</b> 06/21/2012<br><b>Pages:</b> 162<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.99lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 10.23h x 6.71w x 0.41d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780743474764<br><b>Age Range:</b> 12-17<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Booklist</i> 02/01/2004 pg. 983<br><i>Voice of Youth Advocates</i> 04/01/2004 pg. 54<p></p>
