The term “graphic novel” was ﬁ rst popularized by Will Eisner to distinguish his book A Contract with God (1978) from collections of newspaper comic strips. He described graphic novels as consisting of “sequential art” — a series of illustrations which, when viewed in order, tell a story. Although today’s graphic novels are a recent phenomenon, this basic way of storytelling has been used in various forms for centuries — early cave drawings, hieroglyphics, and medieval tapestries like the famous Bayeux Tapestry can be thought of as stories told in pictures. The term graphic novel is now generally used to describe any book in a comic format that resembles a novel in length and narrative development. Award-winning, critically acclaimed graphic novels such as Bone, Persepolis, Maus, and The Tale of One Bad Rat are prime examples of this new type of contemporary literature. Some parents, educators, and librarians may associate the term “graphic novels” with content that includes violence, adult language, and sexually provocative images. Although there are many comics and graphic novels that contain these elements, there is also a growing body of graphic novels that are free of such content and are suitable for all ages, including children. Reviews of graphic novels appear regularly in School Library Journal, Booklist, Voice of Youth Advocates, Library Media Connection, Publishers Weekly, and other journals. By reading these reviews; seeking the advice of trusted retailers, wholesalers, and publishers; and by previewing materials prior to circulation, you should be able to build a collection that is suited to your audience. It is the goal of Scholastic’s Graphix imprint to increase the range and variety of graphic novels published for children. Are graphic novels suitable for the young, and how do I evaluate them?

What are some of the best books about graphic novels for youth librarians and teachers? Graphic novels powerfully attract kids and motivate them to read. Many public librarians have built up graphic novel collections and have seen circulation ﬁ gures soar. School librarians and educators have reported outstanding success getting kids to read with graphic novels, citing particularly their popularity with reluctant readers, especially boys — a group traditionally difﬁ cult to reach. At the same time, graphic novels with rich, complex plots and narrative structures can also be satisfying to advanced readers. Graphic novels can also help improve reading development for students struggling with language acquisition, as the illustrations provide contextual clues to the meaning of the written narrative.
