Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. For intermediate readers, this graphic novel is in black and white, is text heavy, and talks about the holocaust and Nazi Germany. The mice are Jews and the cats are the Nazis. It educates us about a serious historical event while still making it appropriate and engaging. A good introduction to a very serious event in history. A powerful and memorable conclusion to the story woven in the first book. Spiegelman takes you through various moments in the past, as well as his struggle to convey the histories into a narrative for his book. This is a hard book to rate. It's an important book, and worth reading. It really does show a lot of the trauma that was left after the Holocaust, even for the survivors. But while I'm glad I read it, it's hard to say that I enjoyed it. How can you say you "enjoyed" reading about such a horrific time in human history, even when it's told in an otherwise enjoyable style? I liked the art style a lot, that's for sure. I connected to the people and their story. I definitely recommend the book (though start with the first one), but remember that it's not an easy subject matter even though it's in graphic novel format. 2014 (my review of a re-read of this and Maus I are on the linked LibraryThing page) https://www.librarything.com/topic/179643#4954678
Perhaps no Holocaust narrative will ever contain the whole experience. But Art Spiegelman has found an original and authentic form to draw us closer to its bleak heart. By writing and drawing simply, directly and earnestly, Mr. Spiegelman is able to lend his father's journey into hell and back an immediacy and poignance... In recounting the tales of both the father and the son in "Maus" and now in "Maus II," Mr. Spiegelman has stretched the boundaries of the comic book form and in doing so has created one of the most powerful and original memoirs to come along in recent years.

This book is a survivors tale of the holocaust and his experiences. This is an own voices book and gives students a direct glimpse into what this might have looked like for Jewish people in these days.
I really like this book because it simplifies such a complex topic and helps children better understand something like this. Many times we have to teach children these things but we don't know how to go about it without it scaring them or becoming way too overwhelming. I would have my students read this if we were taking about the holocaust. They also use animals as the characters, this puts a buffer between the cruel things that happened and make them a little more manageable for children. (
