 * Graphic Novels** are the latest attempt to attract new readers. Often, they are previously published works of literature that are now re-published in a comic format. Many Teacher-Librarians report not only an increase in general circulation, but also an increase in the number of patrons who regularly check out books. In addition to regular readers, this format is great for attracting reluctant readers, struggling readers, ESL students, and others who might not choose to read other books from the library collection.

Let students create their own graphic interpretations of a story on [|ToonDoo]!
