Book Reviews of Getting Graphic!: Comics for Kids

Book Review: A clearly written and highly useful tool
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a clearly written and highly useful tool for teachers, librarians, and school media specialists, a welcome and much needed annotated bibliography of 111 titles for children between the ages of four and twelve (grades K-6). Among the titles given a full review are a dozen representative of publishers' series accompanied by a full list of the series. It includes plenty of sample illustrations, a glossary, an internet directory, and an index. It's organized into three main lists for younger children, comic fiction, manga, and comic non-fiction. Each review ends with a suggested grade level. Plus there's an Amelia Rules! comic introduction by Jimmy Gownley.
