Critics Review
Praise for the Science Comics series:
“This series–written by a handful of authors–seems determined to offer a useful introduction to anything a curious grade-school student might wonder about. The insight behind these books is a powerful one. So much information about the world around us is actually better conveyed visually, through charts, illustrations, and sequential panels, than purely using words.” –New York Times
“Like having a Time Life Science Library in comic books. Which is awesome!” –Popular Science
Praise for Science Comics: Cars:
“The winding scenery that gives this journey warmth is historical anecdotes…Zettwoch imbues his visually dense pages with personality and flow befitting his subject.” –Booklist
“This breezy spin through the past, present, and (near) future of cars and related vehicles speeds down a well-traveled road, but its graphic format will give it particular appeal to readers years away from learner’s permits.” –School Library Journal
About The Author
Dan Zettwoch
Dan Zettwoch makes slice-of-life comics, goofball illustrations, how-to diagrams, and folksy art in his house in St. Louis. His books include Bidseye Bristoe, Amazing Facts and Beyond, and lots of self-published mini-comics. At the request of his two-year-old son Archie, he just finished a massive neon green and silver screenprint showing the mechanical and historical underpinnings of the monster truck. He always has ink all over himself. Science Comics: Cars is his first book with First Second. danzettwoch.com
