Instead of using novels or historical essay I believe that Aydin Spigleman and Satrapi wanted to use multimodal texts because they wanted to combine the option of reading and writing and pictures in one. For example, we have cases that we see a picture and it is so emotional and we say one pictures is equal with a thousand words. It means that only from the pictures it has so many emotions that its like reading something with a thousand words. Another reason I believe they use multimodal is there are more chance of people seeing this kind of text , for instance not many people like to reading a novel or a book but there are people that they can read a poster or watch a small YouTube video. Third I believe combining words, music, text, color and many more aspect can attract more people into watching and reading this type of text.

For experience I never worked in a multimodal text before but to be honest I want to try making one and I am kind of worried if it is going to be hard
