(2) YA Illustrated by Daniel Lafrance. McKay and Lafrance's graphic-novel reworking of McKay's 2008 novel tells in harrowing detail the story of children abducted to become soldiers in the Lord's Resistance Army in Uganda; the book begins with the ambush of a school bus. Lafrance varies his palette strategically to present an unflinchingly dark visual representation of the horrors young boys experience at the hands of the LRA.
