Maus/Night Comparison
Maus and Night go twell together because they both tell stories of the Holocaust. Night, was more realistic and was told from someone's point of view that was in the Holocaust, making this my favorite of the books. Night was my favorite because, it was more realistic and had more impact on me. Maus, on the other hand, seemed to make a less serious version of what really happened in the Holocaust. I think it is clever that the author created the nazis as cats and the jews as mice, cause everyone knows that these two don't get allong. The idea behind Maus was meant to give a younger reader a good example of the holocaust, but Night did a better job of telling us what happened in the Holocaust. If someone asked me what book they I suggest it would be Night, because of its greater depth on what happened in the Holocaust.

Good points. You might want to use more specific examples (e.g., what are some specific details that are more realistic about Night).
