History and culture should naturally come together in meaningful and instructive ways as people converse and interact. Unfortunately, most students studying history and social studies don't experience this synthesis. A focus on testing often reduces history to a series of dates and facts for exams, diminishing the broader value of historical study in students' education. History's traditional role as a guiding lens for decision-making has waned.
Throughout recorded history, graphic images have effectively conveyed important meanings and stories. Visual mediums like graphic novels and comic literature uniquely engage readers of all ages.
Wood Block Press addresses this challenge by offering engaging learning opportunities through graphic novels and comics. These mediums, both in print and digital formats, provide an accessible and dynamic way for students to learn. The influence of graphic arts and design is evident in their pervasive presence in media. For over a century, comic literature has been a cornerstone of our entertainment culture and continues to evolve with the times.
The pursuit of social progress relies on the examples set by our peers and predecessors—stories from Americans that inspire enjoyment and learning. This is the mission that we at Wood Block Press stand by.
