[aisle] sports-themed graphic novels?

[Carrie Small]

Jake Maddox has some really good sports graphic novels, but they are also
written lower. Part of the problem with graphic novels is that once you get
higher in the reading level, they become increasingly inappropriate in
content and pictures.  The original Jake Maddox novels themselves do have
some pictures.  Those range from a level 2 to about a level 4 reading level
(guided reading levels L-M).
