Edu-Manga: Joan of Arc

This new line of Edu-Manga* features Astro Boy, one of Japan's most popular icons among children who journeys alongside the reader. He provides for kids not only a history lesson but also a richer understanding of the life lessons these historical figures share with us. Jeanne d'Arc is *the* 15th century national heroine of France. From Napoleon to the present, French politicians of all leanings have invoked her memory. She was beatified in 1909 and canonized as a saint in 1920. *Note: Edu-Manga is a term coined in Japan which means Educational Manga.
