Bone is a graphic novel series about three bone cousins. You don't get a lot of back story on the cousins, or what bones are. All you know is that the three cousins have been run out of Boneville because of a stunt their rich cousin, Phoney Bone, pulled.
Early on in the story the cousins are lost and get separated. The story is divided up into two perspectives, Fone Bones and Phoney Bones, who seen like complete opposites. Phoney Bone is rich and greedy, while Fone is a kind hearted bone.
I particularly the different characters encountered throughout the story. Each character had their own personality, and they continue to pop up at unexpected times.
It is hard to say much about the story, as not much is resolved at the end of the book. I am intrigued enough that I will most likely pick up the next book in the series to see what happens to the characters.
I'm not sure how I would use this book in my classroom. You could either have a discussion or a free write about what might happen next in story. Really, I probably wouldn't use it in my class, but it would be fine for students to use during a free read period.
