Book Review: Last Pick by Jason Walz

Aliens have invaded the world in this graphic novel and left behind only the old, the young, and the disabled. Occasionally the aliens return to gather those who are no longer young. Sam and Wyatt were left behind - an now, as the aliens return, they need to rely on each other to start a revolution and bring hope to those left behind on Earth.

Consider - What exactly does it mean to be disabled? Don't we all have strengths AND things that challenge us? Why are some people labeled with a "disability" and others are not? Can a human characteristic be disabling in one situation while being enabling in another?

Can we mix together our strengths together to make our world a better place? To create different better solutions to our problems? To enrich our environment?

Check out this graphic novel from our library or from Nashua Public Library. Then try the sequels. You will be glad that you did.
