The giant ants first attacked humanity a year ago - eating anyone over the age of 12, and enslaving children to work as their slaves. Now, three young rebels - Sam, Ellie and Paul - are closing in on the ants' home colony, and the horrific Queen Ant herself. The war will end today... Graphic novels serve a number of needs. They encourage reluctant readers because of the high ratio of pictures to text and because they are viewed as a leisure activity rather than school work. In spite of this perception, pupils can learn a lot from them, such as the use of direct speech, the logical order in which to read text boxes and, of course, narrative forms. This brilliantly illustrated series of six books will excite and engage readers of about 11-13 who have a very low reading age of 6-7.
