Well, I got the Sonic the Hedgehog books and a TMNT book in. They'r giving me flashbacks to the 80s, since they're compilations of comics based on the cartoons of that era. The coloring still looks like the comics, but the pages are a nice quality. I hope they hold up better than the Marvel digests, which seem to fall apart after they've been checked out 10 times (a pet peeve of mine).

Time to Get Cracking

Well, I just ordered six Sonic the Hedgehog titles from Archie Comics. That should be popular with the boys. It's harder to find good stuff for girls. We've already got all the Babysitter's Club grapic novels. I have high hope for Udon's Swans in Space, though. We got The Big Adventures of Majoko (also published by Udon) and it's really cute.

I've found School Library Jounal's blog Good Comics for Kids very helpful in finding new titles.

The beginning

Hi! I'm starting a blog.

I'm hoping to use it to focus on books of interest to me, especially graphic novels for children.

What do you like to read?
