Persepolis (original French-language edition) (French Edition)

I'm a French teacher, and I've used this book in my classes. The story is amazing and poignant. It chronicles the life of a young Marjane and the events that surround her life. The graphics are simple but emotional. The language is appropriate for an intermediate level French class. The students have immensely enjoyed this book and its themes. I highly recommend Persepolis for both French and English classes.

You might as well order this directly from France (amazon.fr). The price plus shipping is only about $55 even after you take into account the unfavourable exchange rate.
