Reading Respone 2

The Canary-Colored Caravan of Death to me was a interesting way of telling a story by using comics. This is my first encounter of a story that is not about and super hero and is about comics, and I found it a creative way to tell a story. Even though I may have found the idea of using the comic to write the story creative, I found it to be very hard to follow. While reading it I kept on getting confused because the author seemed to switch from topic to topic without a really clear transition. Also I felt that if the main focus was about the father passing away and life after that it should have been more clearly stated than what I was getting for the passage. However, I did find that the ideas were there and the author seemed very creative about how she wrote the piece. Maybe if the pieces of the passages would have flowed better and made it clear how each other fit with the other it would have helped with my confusion of this passage. I also did not understand the random geology and facts about the area they lived in. I found this to be unnecessary to the whole entire passage, and just made me even more confused on how it related to her father. Next, I found it moving that the author did add something that connected her with her dad in a special way. For example, when she talked about the poem she wrote and how she showed it to her dad and he said a second stanza right away to help her. That showed me that she got some of her writing creative from her father. Finally, after reading this passage I believe that the ideas were there, but the lack of flow made it hard to follow.
