Graphic Novel Picks

Graphic Novel PicksFor most of us summer means reading whatever we want. So, we've decided to dive head first into the new (well, new to some of us) world of graphic novels for kids and teens. Basically a graphic novel is a type of comic book, usually with a lengthy and complex storyline similar to those of novels. We recommend reading Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art by Scott McCloud as an introduction to the genre. We asked everyone who works in the kids' section what their favorite titles are and this is what we got — some old, some new. We read all of them and now we're hooked. Hopefully, you will be, too.
