OverviewIn the ever-changing digital age, storytelling and literacy are constantly evolving, presenting new and exciting challenges and opportunities for educators, researchers, and students alike. As audiences continue to interact with stories across numerous media platforms, from traditional print to digital mediums, it is becoming increasingly important to understand how these different forms of storytelling shape literacy practices. Unfortunately, the existing literature often fails to explore this complex interplay between media and literacy in a comprehensive way, preventing researchers from getting a full picture of these realities.

Through detailed case studies, classroom vignettes, and ethnographic examinations, readers gain valuable insights into the evolving nature of literacy in the digital age. Whether you're a researcher, teacher, or student in education, literacy, media studies, or related fields, this book is an indispensable resource for understanding the complexities of storytelling across media. This volume offers practical insights and theoretical frameworks for enhancing literacy education in today's multimedia landscape by exploring the impact of comics, film, digital composition tools, and famous characters.
