      Starred review from July 1, 2021
      Grades 3-6 *Starred Review* The popular Who Was? biography series gets a makeover in the new Who HQ Graphic Novels series (4 titles). A different author and illustrator team takes on each subject, imparting an individualized artistic style for each volume while following the same basic structure: dialogue-driven panel art bookended by a short, written introduction and conclusion. Individual pages of text interject historical context when needed, and a time line and bibliography conclude. Rosa Parks' lawsuit against the bus company that led her to be jailed for violating segregation laws and an inspiring amount of community organizing are vibrantly illuminated in Who Sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott? All the books showcase the passions and urgency or risks behind their headline-making events and humanize the people who made them possible.
