My Project

Graphic novels are some of the most popular books in our library. However with so many additions to graphic novel/ comic book series each year, it is hard to keep up with all the new popular titles.

Our voracious readers have cycled through the majority of our graphic novel collection, and they're ready for more.

Graphic novels are a wonderful way to engage reluctant readers, develop visual literacy and critical thinking skills, and even support english language learners in developing their reading skills.

I can't wait for our students to be able to check out these popular titles that I have requested such as Picture Day, InvestiGators: Take the Plunge, andA Super Scary Narwhalloween, and find new favorites!
