A review by lisavp
A Child in Palestine by Naji al-Ali, Joe Sacco

challenging dark emotional funny informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

5.0

Wonderful collection of Naji al-Ali's cartoons. I liked that the cartoons were categorised and that they had an explanatory subscript. I also liked the foreword by Joe Sacco and the chapter introductions by Abdul Hadi Ayyad. These provides insightful background to the cartoon.  The only thing I would change is to include more cartoons and perhaps a translation of the Arabic writing. I can read Arabic and this added a level to the cartoons that other people will miss out on. It makes them more impactful. Very enlightening. I definitely recommend!
