Steve Jobs grew
up in a home where he could tinker and invent his own projects. As he grew up he didn’t love college and
decided that he could make a personal computer that would be easy for the
general population to use. His creative
mind and striving for perfection led him to inventing the iPod and iPhone. He revolutionized technology.
This graphic novel is a creative and succinct
biography of Steve Jobs. The book
concentrates on his work with technology and not a lot of feelings and personal
observations, but I feel like that made it unbiased. The pictures are in black and white and have
a lot of details about the technology, but it’s explained in a simplified
way. The content is PG because there are
three times when he uses expletives (#@!) and it eludes to his drug use after
high school.
