Description: "Legendary photographers Dorothea Lange, Toyo Miyatake, and Ansel Adams all photographed the Japanese American incarceration, but with different approaches-and different results. This nonfiction picture book for middle grade readers examines the Japanese-American incarceration-and the complexity of documenting it-through the work of these three photographers"--

Review Quotes: "Any kid into graphic novels and comics is going to fall naturally into reading this factual history. The transition is almost seamless. As books about this moment in history go, Seen and Unseen has gotta be one of the most enjoyable I've ever encountered...a pleasure to read. The mix of illustration and photography is expertly done, the text never thick and dull. You are sucked into Partridge's telling and Tamaki's art from the get go.... History, photography, comic art, and a distinctly contemporary take on telling kids the truth about the past. What could be better?" - Betsy Bird, School Library Journal
