Tales From Outer Suburbia

  Compared to other comic texts we had read in the past, the tales from outer suburbia was way shorter which in my opinion was better. It was easier to understand the moral or theme compared to other texts we had read before. We see how the topic of immigration and coming to a new land completely different from the land you was born in can sometimes be a hard time to deal with. New traditions, new people, new lifestyle are some of the stuff immigrants see changes when arriving to a new country. I enjoyed how there was a magical theme such as the hidden door in the house that led them to a place similar to their country of origin because it showed how they can still practice their traditions, even though they are living in a different place. Overall, i enjoyed a lot reading this literature since it was short, straight to the point, with a deep and common theme such as immigrating to a new place.
